New for 2025/2026 Meal Benefits Applications

Collins Elementary School has an important update for the 2025-2026 School Year.

Students will no longer eat lunch at no cost due to changes in the District Food Service Program funding. As a courtesy, all students will eat lunch at no cost for the first 30 days of the new school year. Effective Tuesday, September 23, 2025, students will eat based off their meal eligibility status and students who do not have a meal eligibility status will need to pay for lunch until a Meal Benefits Application is processed. The Food and Nutrition Services Department will start accepting online Meal Benefits Applications for the 25-26 school year on Monday, July 14, 2025, at www.myschoolapps.com.

All students will continue to receive breakfast at no cost under the Universal Free Breakfast Program. To qualify for additional programs, complete the Meal Benefits Application at www.myschoolapps.com along with the Parent Disclosure Form in the Focus Parent Portal.

Households are encouraged to create an account to fund/prepay through My School Bucks for each student at www.myschoolbucks.com starting July 28, 2025, for the purchase of meals and/or a la carte items.  Thank you.
