Food Service Price Increase Notice:
I hope this email finds you well as we head towards winter break.
We are reaching out to our school to let everyone know that Meal Prices are going to be increased as of January 6th, 2025, upon student's return to class. These increases come as a result of our current, and ongoing, Administrative Review. These increases will be for our entire Food Service Program and will take place at all 3 of our schools to maintain program integrity.
As a reminder, both Spring Creek and Altoona are both CEP (Free), so there was no need to list Student Paid and Reduced pricing changes. All other pricing changes are the same across all 3 schools.
We are actually a bit behind the curve on this but have been working with the State to remain in compliance and have a sustainable Food Service Program. This increase will affect the majority of our meal pricing, based on the data collections of their USDA calculator Tools utilized to make the final decision on the correct Meal Pricing.
Please see the attached image for the exact changes that are taking place. Also, this document mentions the State requirements on making this knowledge open to the public, via websites and social media platforms.
Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns.
Thanks in advance,
Mikael P. Hiller
Director of Food Services
