An introduction to School Meals Children need healthy meals to learn. Stanwood Camano School District offers healthy meals every school day. The National School Lunch & Breakfast Program is a federally funded program providing nutritionally balanced meals to children. The USDA administers the program at the federal level. School districts that choose to participate in the program receive financial assistance for each meal they serve. In return they must serve meals that meet the federal nutritional requirements and offer free or reduced priced meals to eligible children. Here are some fact sheets regarding the Nutritional Standards for School Meals and also information regarding Smart Snacks at Schools! Click on the link for more information! Free & Reduced Priced Meals Your children may qualify for free meals or for reduced price meals. Qualification is based on your household's income. To find out if you qualify, you must fill out a Current Year National School Lunch and Breakfast Application (one application per family). You will find the application in any school office or you may download and print the application here: Free and Reduced Information. In addition, this year, we are now offering online applications through Family Access. Family Access log-in information can be obtained by contacting your school secretary. Please remember a new application must be completed each year. Completed applications can be returned to your child's school or mailed (we are not able to accept faxed copies) to the following address:

Meal Payment Options Students have the opportunity to pre-pay for the meals they purchase from the cafeterias by sending cash or a check (made payable to Stanwood Camano School District or SCSD).
