Price Increase for Lunches at Richton School District

When the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act was signed into effect in 2010 by President Obama, one of the requirements was that the school district increases their “paid” lunch prices gradually until the revenue per lunch matches the federal free reimbursement level. Starting with the school year 2013-2014, the price of a paid lunch will increase by $0.25 making the lunch price for paid student’s rise from $2.00 to $2.25.
Another increase for the school year 2014-2015 of $0.25 will bring the charge for lunch level with the federal free reimbursement rate. The lunch price for that school year will be $2.50.
