Meal Prices

2024-25 SCHOOL YEAR MEAL PRICES

Starting Monday, August 5, 2024 all students enrolled in KCS will automatically qualify for breakfast and lunch at no cost regardless of socioeconomic status and without completing a free or reduced-priced meals application thanks to the KCS Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) program.

The items that make up the five food components of the school meal are:
  • One item from the protein group
  • One to two items from the vegetable group
  • One to two items from the fruit group (high school students can select two fruit servings)
  • One item from the bread/grain group
  • One item from the milk group
 
Prices below indicate the cost for a student meal beyond the no-cost meal provided via the KCS CEP program. There will still be a charge for ice cream, a la carte items, snack items, and extra food items (seconds).
  • No charging will be allowed for the purchase of ala carte items or additional/extra meals.
Employee and Visitors will be required to pay the price as listed.
