Free & Reduced Meal Program

It's more than just a meal application!

Completing the annual application for school benefits can help the district secure additional funding to support students and connect students with discounted fees or community support resources.

What it can provide for your student:

• Free or Reduced Meals
• Family Connections & Human Services Centers
• Fee Waiver Program (athletics, ASB, clubs, course fees, supplies)
• AP Test Fees
• Field Trips
• Gate Entrance Fees
• 24/7 Crisis Support Line
• No-Cost Health Care Access
• College application and testing fee waivers
• College Bound Scholarship eligibility
• Before & after-school academic/enrichment programs
• Classroom, teacher, and student resources

No-Cost Meals:
**For the 2025–2026 school year, all students at Richard Gordon, David Wolfle, and Suquamish Elementary will automatically receive no-cost school meals.**

We ask all families to complete the School Benefit Application, no matter your income. Every application helps—both for your student and for district programs that serve all kids.
