3.2. Consideration and possible action to approve breakfast, lunch, and milk prices for the 2021-2022 school year.
Rationale:
Usually, districts use the PLE tool to determine meal prices. Freeman is applying to have student meal prices waived for the 2021-2022 school year through the USDA's Seamless Summer Option program. This would give free breakfast and lunch to all students, not including seconds, extra milk, or Kindergarten milk.
Recommendation: Prices for 2021-2022 should be set in case of any changes. Keep them the same as 2020-21. Reduce staff meal prices for 2021-2022 only to $3.25. |
