Last week, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture announced that they would be extending a program which allows free breakfast and lunch to be provided to ALL school students.  Students in Grades K-12 both face-to-face and virtual learning are eligible for free school breakfast/lunches. This program will begin on Monday, September 14, 2020 and run through December 31, 2020.  

The Breakfast/Lunch pickup site for virtual learners will be at the Yough Intermediate Middle School on Mondays and Thursdays from 4:00-5:00.

Breakfast/Lunches will be delivered to your car from the auditorium door of the building. No one will be entering the school buildings. Cafeteria personnel will be there to handle distribution in an efficient and safe manner, taking into consideration the health, safety, and welfare of all involved.

After December 31, 2020 meal distributions will return to paid, free, and reduced rates based on household qualifications. Please continue to complete and update your Household Application for Free & Reduced Meals to avoid any gap in benefits. 

A free/reduced lunch application can be found on the district website at https://www.youghsd.net/nutrition_department or online at https://www.compass.state.pa.us/compass.web/Public/CMPHome/
