While free meals for all students were a welcome relief during the pandemic, these benefits will end at the of this school year. When the pandemic hit, the federal government funded a program that allowed all students—even those who were not previously eligible—to receive free meals. However, recently they have declined to continue funding this program.
If your child qualifies for free or reduced meals, they can still receive them, but you must take action to make it happen! If you are concerned that you may not be able to afford school meal prices, we urge you to fill out an application for free or reduced meal benefits as soon as possible. You can find a copy of this application on our website or contact Chris Beach, Child Nutrition Director. The process is simple and can be done online, but Chris is happy to answer any questions you may have. The District is always available to support families, so think about what option is best for you, and let us know if there is any way we can assist.

This young man is a remarkable representation of what it means to be a Harrisburg Tiger. After getting off the bus each morning, HHS Freshman Ian Krall holds the door and greets his fellow Tigers as they enter the building. Why does he do it? Students' smiles of recognition and 'thank-yous' from them each morning 'make [him] feel good.' 😊 We could not be more #TigerProud of Ian for taking the initiative to start each HHS student's day with such a kind gesture. 🐾
