School meals are available to all enrolled students at no charge for the 2026-2027 school year, regardless of household income. The free & reduced meal benefit applications DO need to be filled out this year. Household free/reduced meal applications are distributed every four years under special provision II, rather than annually.
This information is used to determine the eligible benefit percentages the Yarmouth school nutrition department will use when claiming meals for the upcoming four years. School year 26/27 is a base year and Yarmouth Schools will be collecting applications online or via paper.
In addition to meal benefits, this data provides data for key funding the district relies on for academic resources and programs such as Title I. To apply, complete the Household Application for Free and Reduced Price School Meals and return to:

Please reach out to Emily Madsen, Director of School Nutrition, with any questions or concerns.
