National School Lunch Week
Color your parrot for a chance to win a Razor Scooter!
National School Lunch week is October 14-18. The theme is "School Lunch Pirates: Find Your Treasure!" In celebration of this week, Chartwells is sending each student home with a parrot coloring page. Participating students who turn in their coloring page by the deadline will have a chance to win a Razor Scooter!
To have a chance at winning the Razor Scooter, turn in the coloring page by 10/18. Each homeroom teacher will choose their favorite coloring page from the class and submit their finalist for our special judge to choose the winner! The winning student will be chosen the week of 10/21-10/24. Let's get coloring!
Free & Reduced Carryover 2024/2025
Free or Reduced Carry-Over Status Ends October 15, 2024
AASD families approved by direct certification or through an application for Free or Reduced Meals for the 2023-2024 school year, we want to remind you that carry-over status, which allows families time at the start of the school year to submit a new annual application will expire on Tuesday, October 15, 2024. All families without a current and completed Free or Reduced application will revert to full pay for meals on Wednesday, October 16. Please submit your completed Free or Reduced application to determine eligibility for meals for the remainder of this school year. Households must be certified annually to continue benefits.
Please note, that families with students who attend a CEP School (Community Eligibility Program) will continue to receive meals. However, we encourage all families to apply if they feel they would qualify as they may be eligible for additional benefits and our schools can also benefit from additional funding.
REMINDER: Meal benefits apply only to the reimbursable meal. The reimbursable meal includes milk as one of the required components and must be priced as a unit. If the student decides to take only milk, this is not a reimbursable meal, and the meal account will be charged for the milk as an à la carte item.
An updated application form is located within your Infinite Campus Parent Portal under applications/forms, on the district website, or may be obtained from your student’s school. In order to save time processing, we encourage you to fill out the online form via the Infinite Campus Parent Portal.
Please remember to add money to your meal account if you have not applied for the current year. If you have questions, please email the Food Service staff at foodservice@aasd.k12.wi.us or by phone at (920) 852-5314.
