Complete your School Lunch Form--Many students in our district are eligible for free lunch, which is determined by responses on the School Lunch Form. Even if you do not think you are eligible, you should complete a form anyway because, in addition to funding for the school lunch program, responses on these forms are also used for other funding programs that help pay for other programs. Our mission is to provide nutritious, student-friendly, economical meals that enhance student ability to learn. We proudly serve breakfast and lunch to students daily, even in the summer, and ensure that students get nutritious meals that meet the standards set by the state of New Jersey and the Federal Government.
For Questions please contact the department through the listed contact information.Thank you.
