Food Service
As of October 1, 2022, and through the end of the 2022-2023 School Year, since the Eastern York School District participates in the School Breakfast Program, we will be serving students a school breakfast meal at no charge. The District will still be charging for additional breakfast meals or A la Carte breakfast items.
This change is only applicable to the School Breakfast Program in the 2022-2023 School Year. The District will be charging for the School Lunch Program. This does not affect a student’s eligibility status for lunch (free, reduced, and paid, respectively). Families should continue to complete the free and reduced lunch application to qualify for those benefits.
**IMPORTANT CHILD NUTRITION UPDATE**
Food shortages are nationwide, and our District is also experiencing unavailable items, last-minute replacements, and rescheduled deliveries. Menus are subject to change and the District will do its best to keep you informed of any changes. Please take time to review menus daily.
We appreciate your patience and understanding.! We look forward to serving your students during the 2022-2023 school year.
