Although West Irondequoit CSD does not qualify to host a summer meals program, our students may receive food at other local schools as part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Summer Food program. We've partnered with nearby districts that are able to provide FREE SUMMER MEALS for children 18 and under. ID and registration is not necessary and there are no income requirements.
FREE MEALS AGAIN IN 2025-26
Our district is again approved for the Community Eligibility Provision, which allows free breakfast and lunch to all students regardless of income. We still suggest that all families who think they might be eligible for the 2025-26 school year Household Income Eligibility form that will be available to families in July 2025. Once the application is available, we will notify families.
If you submitted a Household Income Eligibility Form in 2024-25 and were approved, your child will receive benefits through October 17, 2025. A new application must be submitted and approved to receive benefits after that. The 2025-26 School Year Household Income Eligibility Form will be available later this summer on the district website under Food Services and will also be in the annual “Back to School” edition of The Quote newsletter mailed to all families (and online).
