More Students Eligible for Free Lunch This School Year

Posted on

Students eating lunchThere is a lot of delicious food dished up in our school cafeterias every day, and we want to remind all parents that more students are eligible for free lunch this year. That’s because the Utah legislature passed legislation making school lunch free for all students who qualify for reduced meal benefits. Breakfast will still be charged at the reduced price of $0.30. A la cart items are not included in the reimbursable meal and those items will be charged at regular price.

Meal prices for the 2025-26 school year have remained the same.

The prices are listed below:

  • Elementary Breakfast: $1.05
  • Elementary Lunch: $2.00
  • Secondary Breakfast: $1.25
  • Secondary Lunch: $2.25
  • Adults Breakfast: $2.50
  • Adults Lunch $4.10
  • Reduced Breakfast: $0.30
  • Reduced Lunch: Free
  • Student 2nd Breakfast $2.50
  • Student 2nd Lunch $4.10

To find out if you qualify for free and reduced meal benefits visit Jordan School District’s Nutrition Services Website.

Students and staff gathered at Bingham High School for a fun and entertaining Homecoming assembly. The assembly featured performances by several clubs and organizations, a rousing rendition of the National Anthem, and inductions into the Pay Dirt Club, symbolized by hitting a drill bit with a hammer.

Homecoming week activities at Bingham continue throughout the week with dress-up days and after-school activities, culminating in a Friday night football game against Riverton, featuring a chalk throw and a pregame tailgate party. The homecoming dance will take place on Saturday night with the theme of “Take Me to Rio.”
