Nutritional Services Department

As we move towards the 23-24 school year, we want to keep our families informed about the new Healthy School Meals for All program (Proposition FF) that was passed in Colorado in November 2022. Starting this school year, ALL students at ALL schools will have access to school meals at no cost. 

Even though meals  are free, district funding could be at risk if families don’t complete The Family Economic Survey/Meal Benefits Application. If your income falls within the Income Eligibility Guidelines , one form should be completed per household. Surveys/Meal Applications may be completed on paper or at ccsnutrition.org

Income Guidelines

• Possible benefits of completing the survey/meal benefits application:
  • Increased “at risk” funding for our district
