Great News for Bossier Parish Families!

EVERY  Bossier Parish Student will EAT FREE for the remainder of the 220-2021 school year, the school board announced.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture and Congress worked together to extend federal waivers through the end of the current school year. All students, regardless of income, will now be able to eat free breakfast and lunch at their schools under the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) and Seamless Summer Option (SSO), according to the school board.

Families whose children have money remaining in their My School Bucks account can request a refund . The money will, otherwise, remain in their individual accounts and roll over to next school year.

By the way, Parents are still responsible for any prior outstanding meal balances. Extra sales will be offered, but students will incur a cost for those items.
