What Qualifies as a Free or Reduced-Price Meal?

The Offer Versus Serve concept is utilized in grades K-12. Offer Versus Serve provides students the opportunity to choose only those foods in which the student intends to eat. This USDA concept is designed to REDUCE food waste and give the student the opportunity to SELECT only foods they will enjoy.

Breakfast: Students must choose 3 out of the 4 components offered (fruit, protein, grain, milk) to complete a meal, however one must be a fruit.

Lunch: Students must choose at least 3 out of the 5 food components (fruit, vegetable, protein, grain, milk) to complete a meal; however, 1 of the 3 groups must be a fruit or vegetable.

Choosing less than 3 food groups OR more than 5 food groups will result in being charged ala carte prices. Our staff members are trained to encourage students to select the appropriate items to complete a meal, but they cannot require them too.
