Upper Moreland School District provides additional benefits to the students/families who qualify for Free/Reduced Meals and have received a Notification of Eligibility for meal benefits for the current school year. After applications are processed for the new school year and your application is approved as qualified, you will receive a Notification of Eligibility email with a link to the Sharing of Information Waiver/Consent Form. The Sharing of Information Waiver Form needs to be completed and sent back to the Food Services main office. This form allows the Food Services Department to release your child(ren's) name(s) to the school’s administrators and other staff to waive fees or prvide a decreased cost on programs such as activity fees, testing fees and field trips.  If you have applied and do not qualify, you will receive a letter of Notification of Denial and the additional incentives do not apply.  APPLY TODAY @ www.schoolcafe.com to see if you are eligible for these additional incentives!

Each school year a new application must be submitted unless you receive a Notification of Benefits letter from us in July/August stating that your child(ren) will receive free school meals. You may apply anytime throughout the school year.  You can now apply online! Please visit www.schoolcafe.com. Online is the fastest way to apply for free/reduced school meals. Your application will be processed within 24- 48 hours, max up to 10 days.

Foreign language translations (available in 50 different languages) of the Prototype Application for Free and Reduced Price School Meals are available on School Cafe.  Alternatively, you can use the USDA website. 

Dear Parent/Guardian:

Children need healthy meals to learn. Upper Moreland Township School District offers healthy meals every school day. Breakfast is available at no charge to students. Lunch costs $2.80 at the Elementary School $3.05 at the Middle School and $3.40 at the High School. Your child(ren) may qualify for free meals or for reduced price meals.

During the 2025-2026 School Year, all schools participating in the School Breakfast Program (SBP) are to provide free breakfasts for all enrolled students. Additionally, students identified as eligible for reduced-price lunches through the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) will not be charged for their meals.

This packet includes an application for free and reduced price meal benefits, and a set of detailed instructions. Below are some common questions and answers to help you with the application process.

If you have received a NOTICE OF DIRECT CERTIFICATION letter for free meals, do not complete the application. But do let the school know if any children in your household are not listed in the NOTICE OF DIRECT CERTIFICATION letter you received.

If you have other questions or need help, call 215-830-1522

Sincerely, 

Randi Watts
Director of Food Services
