School dinners
As we have almost completed the AOS, are we allowed to get free school lunches or reduced cost lunches if we fall in the education guidelines? Talking about a middle school child of 11.
Thanks

My friend who is guardian to her children receives vouchers in Massachusetts which are given to the school for the two children's lunches. And no, she is not on welfare or any means of assistance. Check with the guidance counselor of the school. Or check to see if there is a website for the school.

Yes. school lunch programs do not fall into the federal means tested benefit
restriction, and the school system does not care about your child's INS status for
the purpose of calculating free/reduced lunch eligibility.(at least, they don't here
in Maryland...my kids, ages 6 and 9 qualified for the school lunch program when they
started school last september...their AOS interviews are coming up at the end of
this month)
