Dear Avon Public School Families,
I hope this letter finds you well and enjoying your summer. There have been some changes in the School Nutrition Program since the end of School Year 2024/2025. We are transitioning back to a full pay, free or reduced priced meal eligibility program. Students who qualify for reduced meals will be required to pay the prices in the chart below. Please find below the chart of lunch prices for School Year 2025/2026.
Healthy snacks and beverages will be available for purchase at secondary schools with limited choices at the elementary level. Students will be able to purchase these items if their accounts are in good standing without a negative balance.
*It is very important that families who are eligible based on household income for free and reduced meals apply. We have implemented a new program to streamline the application process. This program will be active on 08/19/2025. Families can now apply online by clicking this link:
Families who may qualify for Free or Reduced benefits must apply.
●Families who are receiving assistance through the SNAP or TFA programs do not need to apply.
●Families who feel their income would not qualify for assistance do not need to apply.
Avon Public Schools offers MySchoolBucks, a convenient online service that allows you to securely pay for your student’s meals and set up optional automatic payments online using your credit/debit card or electronic check. Additional information can be found by clicking this link * Avon Nutrition Services *.
Avon Public Schools also accepts cash and personal checks made out the Avon Nutrition Services.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Nutrition Services at 860 404-4734.
