What happened

On July 7, 2026 the board approved 2026-27 prices of $3.85 for lunch, $2.40 for breakfast and $0.50 for milk. The proposal had been to raise lunch by $0.35 and breakfast by $0.25.

Why it matters to families

Families who pay for school meals will pay more each day. The district said rising costs and food service revenue were behind the change.

The evidence

The July 7 minutes list the proposal to increase lunch by $0.35 and breakfast by $0.25 and record the approved prices. The June 15 minutes show the board first tabled the item.
