Press release from the Waukee Community School District:

February 12, 2021

The US Department of Agriculture has extended free meals for all students until June 30, 2021 as a result of the pandemic.

What does this mean for families?

All Waukee CSD students will receive free school meals (breakfast and lunch) through June 30, 2021. At that point, the student’s account will return to their original lunch status and charged accordingly. All money placed in the meal account will carry over until regular meal prices resume. We will do our best to communicate in a timely manner any changes prior to June 30, 2021.

Ala Carte items, second meals, and extra servings still need to be purchased by your student(s).

Online students will be offered the grab and go meals that we are currently offering at the high school site located on the southeast corner of the building (bus lane area) Monday through Friday 10:30 a.m.- 1:15 p.m. Grab and Go Menu

How does this affect applying for free and reduced lunches?

We highly encourage Parent/Guardians to please fill out the Iowa Eligibility Meal Application to apply for free and reduced status at SchoolCafe.com so when we return to charging you will still receive the appropriate meal benefits.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact Nutrition Services at 515-987-2719.
