Breakfast and Lunch Program
Free Lunches for our Students
On Monday, August 31st, 2020, the USDA announced that they will extend several flexibilities from September 1, 2020, through as late as December 31, 2020. The flexibilities allow Summer Meal Program operators to continue serving free meals to all children into the fall months. This means that lunch is provided at NO COST to any student age 18 and under. This became effective on September 1, 2020.
How to Order A Lunch Meal
Due to additional support during Covid-19 from the USDA, Union Ridge will continue offering free meals to all students. Using this link, https://forms.gle/FnZfm1HTyRTY174ZA, please select the days your child plans to participate in the meal program. This selection will act as your meal order form. Orders are to be completed two weeks in advance, to ensure that your child’s selection will be available upon the day of pickup.
All meals will be sent home with students or can be picked up by parents on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
