Posted 8/3/20Free and Reduced Price Meal Applications for the 2020-2021 School Year
Serving the needs of our community also means providing food services. Did you know that Free and Reduced Price Meal Applications for the coming school year are available now?
Right now, meal applications for the 2020-2021 school year are available on paper. Applications were mailed to households the week of June 22, 2020 and are also available to print from the department website: mdusd.org/foodservices.
Our Food and Nutrition Services Department is proud to offer multiple resources to our community to assist in completing Free and Reduced Price Meal applications. The department website hosts helpful step-by-step instructional videos in English and in Spanish to assist with application completion. The Food and Nutrition Office also wants you to know that they are readily available to answer any related questions at 925-682-8000 ext. 4124. Ask about the upcoming Zoom meetings for those who need personalized assistance in completing applications.
An online version of the Free and Reduced Meal Application will be available at the beginning of August. A link to the application will be emailed to households as soon as it becomes available. Communication via robocall will invite families to bring their applications into our office, and our health and safety protocols will ensure our offices are safe zones.
The work of Food and Nutrition Services reflects an obvious commitment to excellence, and for this reason, the district remains incredibly proud of its staff and leadership, especially through the logistical challenges of the past months. Thank you, Food and Nutrition Services!
