Reply to comment by IrrawaddyWoman in Move over frozen nuggets, kids prefer farm-fresh school lunches by davster39

Yep, in his district they are! I think the districts need to apply for a waiver to do that, though. They have to have a certain percentage already receiving free lunch in order to qualify. It's awesome though.

breakfast lunch is free for every public school student in the state of California. They passed a law about a year ago.

Private may be different, but for public it’s free for every kid no matter their financial status. No family needs to apply for anything they just show up and get it.

Oh that's great! Hubby's school district has been this way for years and that's my only point of reference because our kids are grown. But this is great to hear!
