Hot Lunch Information
During the transition back to normal school operations in school year 2022-23, EASTCONN Food Services has opted in to the School Meals Assistance Revenue for Transition (SMART) funds providing meals (breakfast and lunch) at no cost for all students at the beginning of the school year. Please note that meals at no cost to all students are unlikely to last all year and are subject to the availability of funds. Since the availability of meals at no cost will expire when all funds have been expended, it is critical that households submit a free and reduced-priced meal application as soon as possible to determine a student’s eligibility for this school year and avoid unpaid meal charges.
Free/Reduced Lunch Application
Alternate Lunches
Alternate lunches are available daily by request only and include all food group components:
A nut butter (Sunbutter or Peanut Butter) & jelly or nut butter & fluff on whole wheat bread, Salad with turkey/salad with cheese/salad with turkey & cheese (EXCEPT Salad Days)/ FUN Lunch
