As we approach the beginning of the 2022-2023 school year we wanted to share some information about our school lunch program. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has provided K-12 students with free breakfasts and lunches through August 31, 2022. As of this communication we have not received information that free meals will continue during the 2022-2023 school year.
It is essential that anyone who feels they may be eligible for free and reduced meals to fill out the 2022-2023 Free and Reduced lunch application that is available above. Procedures are in place to protect the privacy of students participating in the free and reduced program. Receiving Free and Reduced meals does not solely benefit the student receiving the meal, it also benefits the district community; depending on the amount of need within our district, we will receive/be eligible for additional funding. Completed applications should be sent to J. Schwarz at 4040 Baker Road, Orchard Park, NY 14127.
The Orchard Park Central School District offers a comprehensive breakfast and lunch program for all students in K-12 based upon federal dietary guidelines. The menus are nutritionally analyzed and offer a variety of popular foods designed to please varied palates, including vegetarian options at a great value. A la carte items are available for purchase daily. Monthly menus can be found above.
