The Educational Benefits Application (formerly known as the free and reduced-price meals application) is more than just a meal application. It helps provide critical funding to all District 742 schools and additional discounts for eligible families. 

Due to a grant provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, District 742 students will receive breakfast and lunch at no cost during the 2021-22 school year! Families, however, are still encouraged to complete an Educational Benefits Application. (New applications must be submitted each year.)
