NEN Needs Free & Reduced Lunch Applications for Grants

The Northeast Nodaway school needs free & reduced lunch applications in order to access grant money. Many grants are unavailable to NEN due to the low number of free and reduced applications filled out. Patrons are encouraged to fill out the confidential application even if they don’t plan to participate.

Extra milk for lunch or breakfast will be deducted from the student’s lunch account. Money for extra milk should be paid to the school office so it can be entered into the student’s account.

All elementary snack milk money must be paid in advance for the year. Snack milk is voluntary, but is offered from Preschool through 2nd grades. If children do not drink snack milk, they can drink water. Snack milk for a whole year is $98.40, and can be paid during registration.

Meal prices are as follows:

Elementary student lunch — $3.30

Elementary student breakfast — $2.10

Extra breakfast entrée — $2.00

Extra cereal — $.75

Extra milk — $.60

7-12 grade lunch — $3.40

7-12 grade breakfast — $2.10

Extra lunch entrée — $2.00

Fruit/Veggie Bar only — $2.00

Extra 4 oz. juice — $.60

Breakfast and lunch should be purchased in advance by sending the money to the school office. Students will purchase meals from 7:45 am to 8 am or after school each day. Elementary and high school students will be allowed to charge up to $10 for lunch. After the maximum charge is reached, the student will be given a cheese sandwich and milk until payment is made.

The school will be offering the ala carte items during the breakfast and lunch hour for grades 7-12. Ala carte items will be deducted from the student’s lunch account. No money will be taken in the cafeteria for purchases.
