No-cost meals for all students

Jul. 14, 2021

Garland ISD students can get no-cost meals without completing an application or meeting eligibility requirements. Healthy meals will be offered every school day during the 2021-2022 year to all students at no cost.

Typically, a student’s household must meet income eligibility requirements to qualify for no-cost or reduced-price meals. However, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) issued guidance that allows schools to offer meals at no cost for the 2021-2022 school year. Each school/site or central office has a copy of the policy, which may be reviewed upon request.

No application or eligibility determination process is required for your student to receive free meals this school year only, The income eligibility requirement will likely resume in the 2022-2023 school year.

This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
