Nashoba Tech Joins the National School Lunch Program

Nashoba Valley Technical High School will participate in the National School Lunch and Breakfast Program this coming school year. The available meals meet nutritional standards set by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Students whose family income is less than or equal to the State Free and Reduced guidelines are eligible for free or reduced-price meals. The guidelines are effective July 1, 2015, through June 30, 2016.

If you have children who are approved for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as food stamps or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), they are automatically able to receive free meals. Students who are migrant, homeless or runaway are automatically eligible and do not need to fill out an application. Foster children receive free meals regardless of the income of the household with which they reside.

For more information, or to get an application for free or reduced-price school meals, contact Joan Baldwin, 100 Littleton Road, Westford, MA 01886, or at 978-692-4711, ext. 1175.

Nashoba Tech cannot approve an application unless it is complete. The information you give us on your application may be checked.

You may apply for free or reduced-price meals at any time during the school year if your situation changes. If you become unemployed, your child or children may be able to have free or reduced-priced meals based on your unemployment income. If the school denies your application for free or reduced-price meals, you will have a chance to appeal the decision.
