Potential Meal Changes for the 2022-2023 School Year
In an effort to keep Hale County families informed, we would like to provide notification that there are potential upcoming changes to school meals during the 2022-2023 school year. The federal USDA waivers that allow school districts to provide lunches at no cost to the students is set to expire on June 30, 2022. Unless the USDA extends the federal waiver for the upcoming school year, families who do not qualify for free meals can expect to resume paying full or reduced price for school meals. We will continue to communicate any changes that may occur with school meals for the upcoming school year. Updates will be posted to our Hale County Board of Education Facebook page.
****Please note-Hale County School System has received permission to participate again in the Universal Breakfast program. ALL students, regardless of his/her lunch status, can eat breakfast each day at no cost to the student.****
