As part of the state budget for 2024-2025, Chelsea School District is pleased to be able to offer free breakfast and lunch for all students PreK to 12th grade again this year!

Even though meals are free this year, the district still needs to collect the Application for Education and Nutrition Benefits (formerly called the Free & Reduced application). This data determines several different funding sources that we receive from the state so it is crucial that we still collect it. We encourage all families, regardless of income, to complete and submit a short, confidential school meal application prior to the start of the school year. A copy of the application is attached. Our online application can be found at www.mymealtime.com.

In order for students to receive a free meal, they have to take a complete reimbursable meal, which includes the fruit/vegetable. Due to meals being free, this year we will not be allowing students to charge snacks, drinks, and a la carte items to their accounts. Students must have lunch money in hand or on their account to purchase additional items.

We will continue to utilize the Meal Time software system to handle your student’s school lunch account. All balances and previous school year benefit information have been transferred over into the new school year. Accounts can be managed at: mymealtime.com. To set up a new account, you will need your student(s) ID number. Families can make deposits online to their students’ lunch accounts or we also accept cash and checks at the registers. Please make checks payable to: Chelsea Food Service and include your student’s name in the memo.

Menus can be found on Chelsea’s NutriSlice website: https://chelseak12.nutrislice.com. You can also download the NutriSlice app on your smartphone for easy access.

If you would like your child to receive meal accommodations for food allergies or a medical condition impacting their diet, please ensure that you submit the required documentation to your child's school. Meal accommodation forms can be found on the Food Service page of the district website.

If you have questions or need more information, please contact me at 734-433-2201 Ext 1023 or csimpson@chelseaschools.org.
