IMPORTANT UPDATE

PLEASE READ

We have a significant update in regards to our Nashoba School Lunch Program.  Governor Charlie Baker agreed to a major increase in state spending Thursday, signing a $52.7 billion annual budget.  Included in that additional spending is the continuation of the Universal Free School Lunch for the FY2022/2023 school year.   

School lunch will be offered to our students free of charge for the 2022-2023 school year.

All students need to register for a lunch account on My School Bucks to receive their daily lunch. Families can register for MySchoolBucks under the section on the left of this page.  This lunch account will ensure that your student can purchase a second lunch or snack.

Applications for Meal Benefits

Even though Breakfast and Lunch are free for all students, the USDA requires families to complete a new Meal Benefit Application each school year.  If you have completed a Meal Benefits Application in the past, please complete a new one as soon as possible.  There is a link below to complete it online or, you may download the paper application and return it to the Food and Nutrition Office.  If you currently receive SNAP benefits, you DO NOT need to complete an application.  Your children will be directly certified for meal benefits.  If you feel you may qualify for Meal Benefits, please complete an application.  If you have questions please email jovercashjr@nrsd.net.
