- Back to School

You're probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and maybe even a new school. Luckily, these "new" worries only stick around for a little while. Let's find out more about going back to school. Osceola County Schools has resources that you can click on below. Check back often as we continue to update this page with the latest information!

School Reduced Lunch
School Reduced Lunch
The U.S. Department of Agriculture announced that it is returning to pre-pandemic rules by requiring families to apply for free and reduced lunch. This means some students will no longer automatically receive free meals at school.
As a result, families must once again submit an application for free and reduced meals for the 2022-23 school year. To see if your school qualifies as a Community Eligibility Provision (CEP), which allows all students to receive free and reduced lunch without completing the application, please visit the link below:If your school does not fall under the CEP, you must apply based on income. The income eligibility requirements can be found at the following link:
Florida Income Eligibility Guidelines for Free and Reduced-Price Meals
Qualifying families can submit an online application at:
Apply for Free and Reduced Meal Application

For middle and high schools, the price for breakfast is no cost (currently participating in Universal Free Breakfast Program) and lunch is $2.40.
