SCHOOL BOARD APPROVES LUNCH, BREAKFAST PRICE HIKE

We told you in June that plans were underway to raise school lunch and breakfast prices for the fall.

The school board approved the increase at Monday's board meeting, 6-1, with Johanna Wright casting the lone opposing vote and board members Maureen Jones and Jeffrey Bennett absent.

The price change is as follows:



Previous prices:

School                    Lunch              Breakfast

Elementary              $2.75              $1.50

Middle School         $3.00              $1.75

High School             $3.25             $2.00

The new rates:

School                    Lunch              Breakfast

Elementary              $3.00              $1.75

Middle School         $3.25              $2.00

High School             $3.50              $2.25


The new menu will also include what are described as "variable lunches" for middle school and high school students that can be purchased for 75 cents more. District officials describe these lunches as offering more variety and quantity.
