Part of our annual operations involves addressing the deficit between what MPS charges for lunches and the mandated rates set by the Federal Food Services. To narrow this gap, we are requesting a ten-cent increase for student meals.

Additionally, this extra time allows us to plan a high-quality in-service training session. Staff will benefit from focusing on the training without the distraction of classroom responsibilities.
