Meal Benefit Program (Free/Reduced Application)

Meal Benefit Program

**A new application is required each school year. **

Without the meal benefit program, students are responsible for purchasing their breakfast and lunch meals. 

Students may qualify for free or reduced breakfast and lunch. Families are encouraged to complete and submit a Meal Benefit Application for 2025-26 school year after July 1st, 2025.  You can apply online or you can download a paper application and return it to your student’s cafeteria. Why Are School Meals No Longer Free This Year?

It's More Than a Meal Application

We encourage ALL AFUHSD families to complete a Meal Benefits Application. The information collected on the applications for the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) can do more than just provide free and reduced-price meals.

Families who qualify for free/reduced school meals may also qualify for: 

  • Discounted rates on phone service.
  • Maintain funding for student programs and services.
  • Reduced registration fees for AP, SAT and/or ACT tests.
  • Discounted fees to participate in most sports.
  • Discounted rates on fees associated with applying for college.
  • Eligible for discounted rates on internet services.

If you have any questions regarding the Meal Benefit Application or school meal service, please email Food Service Department at foodservices@aguafria.org or call 623.932.7000.
