Public Notice of Eligibility

All meals are served with milk, which is included in the prices listed above.  An additional milk, or 2nd milk, may be purchased for an additional cost. A la carte items are also available at an additional cost.

Parents have the option to place purchasing restrictions on student's meals purchases.  Please notify the Glenpool Child Nutrition Office if you would like to use the option of account restrictions for your student(s) for the current school term by submitting this account restrictions form.  

It is not mandatory that restrictions are set for your student(s). This is an optional service offered to parents/guardians to help monitor their student(s) account(s).

IMPORTANT

Restrictions placed on your student(s) account will remain until the Child Nutrition Department is notified by a parent/guardian.

Every child needs lunch during the school day. Research has shown that hungry children cannot learn. A child with an empty stomach is lethargic, irritable, and is not able to participate in learning experiences. Good nutrition is critical to student achievement.

A school lunch is planned to provide one third of the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA) based on the student’s age. Minimum quantities for each age group must be served, but larger amounts can be offered based on student needs.

We would like to encourage you to fill out an application for free and reduced price meals for your student(s) any time during the school year. There are many positive reasons and results that occur by your doing so.

• Earn more money for your school by filling out and getting your application approved

• Save money if you receive meal benefits

• Receive free or low cost health insurance for your child

• Receive reduced rates on your phone bill 

• Nondiscrimination Statement

Refunds

If your student is in need of a refund of the balance in their meal account, please complete the Refund Request form. Balances left on a student’s account at the end of the school year will carry over to the next school year unless a parent/guardian requests a refund of that balance by June 1st of the current school year. Please note, refunds will not be given on balances of less than $5.00.

To request a refund because you are moving, you must provide us with your new address. Refunds that are mailed out and returned will be used as a donation to the Child Nutrition Department.

After verification by the Board of Education, the Encumbrance Clerk will issue a refund check. Please allow 4-6 weeks for your refund.
