Renton School District Breakfast and Lunch Information

Thanks to continued state and federal funding, Renton School District will provide breakfast and lunch meals free to most students in the 2023-2024 school year. All students can eat school breakfast and lunches free except at Risdon Middle School, Hazen High School, and the H.O.M.E. program. Unfortunately, the federal Community Eligibility Provision grant formula left our district unable to include students at those schools. Families at these schools can complete the Free/Reduced Meal application and email it to RSD.mealform@rentonschools.us or drop off your school cafeteria to receive free meals.

While not required for free school meals, families are strongly encouraged to complete this Family Income Survey. It takes less than 10 minutes and can help students receive important school resources like: before and after school academic and enrichment programs; resources for classrooms; guidance and college counselors; health and wellness services; and more. Submit your completed form to RSD.mealform@rentonschools.us or drop off your school cafeteria.
