Waterloo Schools Healthy Breakfast and
Lunch Program at NO CHARGE to Families
Lunch Program
All students enrolled in Waterloo Schools are eligible for a healthy break-
fast and healthy lunch at NO CHARGE to your household each day of the
2019–2020 school year.
Waterloo Schools is participating in the United States Department of
Agriculture’s Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) in all elementary,
middle and high school buildings. The school district meets the
reimbursement formula to qualify for no-cost breakfast and lunch. Pre-K
students also will be offered an afternoon no-cost snack.
Benefits for Students:
Enjoy healthy meals at school at no cost
Benefits for Families:
No need to fill out a free and reduced lunch application
Do not have to worry about refilling meal accounts or whether their child
has an opportunity to eat at school
Please note:
Families will still be responsible for a la carte items, such as extra milk,
extra entrées and extra side items. There are no standard instructional
fees. Each household should have completed a household survey online.
If you have not done so, please contact your child’s school. They can help
walk you through the process. A household survey and fee waiver must
be on file to determine status of free or reduced driver’s education or
instrument rental. There will be costs associated with driver’s education
and instrument rental if your child enrolls in one of those classes. Fee
waiver forms will be available at your children’s school building. The
waiver form will need to be completed along with the household survey
form for determination of free or reduced fees. There will continue to be
fees for lost books, ID cards, yearbooks. parking, etc. that apply to various
schools. These fees are not subject to the Fee Waiver.
