NEW for 2021-2022 School Year
YCST is now approved to serve free meals to all students. Each student can receive one free breakfast and lunch per day. A la carte food items are not included.
Attn:
Families of Children Who May Qualify for Free/Reduced Meals This School Year
The
U.S. Department of Education has announced that ALL students will
continue to receive free school breakfasts and lunches during the
2021-2022 school year. We are pleased to continue offering our students
the opportunity to receive FREE meals during each school day we are in
session.
However,
families who may qualify for Free/Reduced Meals for the 2021-2022
school year should still complete and return an application for this
school year.
Without
this application on file, your child may not be able to access some of
the supportive assistance offered to make it possible for ALL students
to participate in co-curricular activities, regardless of their
financial situation.
Without
an approved and current Free/Reduced Meals Application on file, your
family also will not be able to receive the continued P-EBT (Pandemic
Electronic Benefit Transfer) through the 2021-2022 School Year. More
information on this program is available here:https://www.education.pa.gov/Teachers%20-%20Administrators/Food-Nutrition/programs/Pages/Pandemic-Electronic-Benefit-Transfer-(P-EBT)-Program.aspx
If
you have qualified for Free & Reduced School Meals in the past, or
if you think you may qualify now, we encourage you to complete an
application and return it as soon as possible.
