Lunch / Breakfast Program
Parents, grandparents, and/or guardians are invited to eat lunch with their student during their lunch time. This is time with your student. You are not permitted to pull any other students to eat with you and your child. A countywide menu is planned and available on the district website. Our daily menu includes a choice of one of two entrees, fresh fruit, and other healthy choice food items, including; either fruit juice or low-fat milk. We also offer breakfast for our students. Breakfast is served Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 8:29 a.m. The computer system in the cafeteria issues each student a cafeteria account number. With this number, students can make deposits to their individual accounts to be used for purchases of meals, extra milk or juice, or other items available to them. Parents can put money in their child’s breakfast or lunch account by logging onto the school district website and using a credit card on the site. Sodas and/or energy drinks are strongly discouraged at school.

Free and Reduced-Price School Meals
A federal program for assistance with meals for economically needy children is available. Parents can complete an application online or in-person by contacting our registrar. Forms are kept in the office. Applications must be approved before the first day of school for NEW STUDENTS. All returning students must complete an updated application within 10 days of the beginning of school. In the event an updated application is not received within the 10-day grace period, the student will lose their assistance and must pay for meals on the 11th day. Those that qualify for free and reduced lunch help support the school. The school receives federal funding that gives us the ability to hire Title I Teachers and Assistants, plus helps us purchase programs and manipulatives for all.
Just a few things that have been purchased or provided at Edwins through these funds:
2 Title I Teachers
1 Title 1 Assistant
A LOT of classroom manipulatives and supplies
Parent involvement activities such as – The Science, Math, and ELA nights at school
