Free & Reduced Priced Meals

Downingtown Area School District has made it faster and easier for parents to apply for free and reduced meals.

Your application is electronically submitted directly to the child nutrition office for  processing.  Please use the link below to access the online application.  The application can be completed in English, Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese and Arabic by selecting the language preference from the dropdown in the upper right corner of the application home page.

If you need technology-related assistance completing this application please reach out to your school guidance office or Jessica Lehr.
