OUR SCHOOL NUTRITION PARTNER
Things Parents Should Know
Amana participates in the National Breakfast Program and the National School Lunch Program.
All parents will need to complete 2023-2024 Household Application for Free and Reduced Price Meals regardless of whether you are applying for the programs or not. These applications are available online, at Open House, and at the front desk. You can also apply online at: https://secure.ezmealapp.com/ApplicationScreen.aspx
Free and reduced-price applications are distributed during orientation, and all families are asked to complete them, regardless of income level, as the school may receive additional funding as a result. Application information is confidential and will be used to determine eligibility.
Please read the letter and Frequently Asked Questions linked below, and then access the downloadable application and instructions in the attachments. Feel free to contact us with any questions you might have. You may also visit the Lunch Menu & Payment Information Page to view instructions for adding money to your child’s account.
