Regularly-Priced Meals
For the 2005-2006 and 2006-2007 school years, the price of meals provided by School Food Service shall be as follows:
Breakfast.-- Breakfast shall cost $1.00 for all levels of students.
Lunch.-- Lunch shall cost: $1.50 for elementary students; $1.75 for secondary students; and $3.00 for adults.
For the 2007-2008 school year and onward, the Superintendent or designee will annually evaluate whether to recommend that breakfast prices be increased through revision of this Policy, considering factors such as the School Food Service statement of revenues and expenditures, the impact of School Food Service salaries and benefits, increases in delivery service costs and prices of purchased goods, reductions in USDA commodity allocations, and indirect and direct costs (such as monies paid to the District from Food Service).
For the 2007-2008 school year, lunch shall cost: $1.75 for elementary students; $2.00 for secondary students; and a price to be determined, through revision of this Policy, for adults.
For the 2008-2009 school year and onward, the Superintendent or designee will annually evaluate whether to recommend that lunch prices be increased through revision of this Policy, considering factors such as those listed in subsection (1)(b).
Reduced-Price Meals.-- In all years, for eligible students at all levels, the cost for reduced-price meals will continue to be set annually according to USDA federal guidelines (which were $0.30 for breakfast and $0.40 for lunch at the time of this Policy revision in mid-2005), and the USDA may evaluate for possible price adjustments on an annual basis.
