Letter from the Superintendent - Meal Charge Policy

Parents and guardians of LPS students, 

The Laurel Board of Trustees has recently updated Policy 8205, the Meal Charge Policy. Please be aware that "after an account has a negative balance of $25, a phone call will be made to the parents to inform them that they are responsible for providing their child with a meal" from home or to add money to their child's balance. We never want to refuse a child a lunch based on a negative account balance so please take the time to check your child's balance on the Infinite Campus Parent Portal , the Infinite Campus Parent Portal App, or you can call your child's school. You can add money via the Parent Portal or drop off money at the office of your child's school. 

We also encourage everyone to fill out a "Free and Reduced Meal Form" (FRAM). This form can be found online (Click Here to Access) or can be picked up at any school or the administration office. You may fill out more than one per year should your financial situation change.
