• Oneonta City Schools is proud to be able to offer free BREAKFAST and LUNCH to all students for the 2024-2025 school year. Due to participation in this program our lunchroom will require a few minor changes. Please be aware of the following guidelines:
     
    🔴Students must get a FULL meal to be considered free.
     
    🔴“Extras” like chips, cookies, flavored water, and extra servings of food will require students to pay cash or have money in their lunch account. Students will not be allowed to charge extras.
     
    🔴Please encourage our students to participate in our breakfast and lunch programs. The more reimbursable meals we serve the more likely we are to be able to continue this program.
     
    🔴If you would like to add money to your child’s account for “extras” please check out the following link for setting up an online account. The link/app looks a little different from last year. Use the link below to access your account.
