Income criteria set for free school lunches

Local school districts have released the income criteria for students to qualify for free or re­duced-price lunches. They have the same standard, based on family size and income.

In order to qualify for free lunch or breakfast, a family of one must have an annual income of less than $15,678. For each additional person in the household, $5,434 is added. So, a household of four must have an income of less than $31,980 to qualify.

Breakfast and lunch also are of­fered at reduced rates. To qual­ify, a family of one must have an income of less than $22,311. For each additional person in the household, $7,733 is added. So, a household of four must have an income of less than $45,510 to qualify.

More information is available by contacting the individual school districts.
