School Breakfast and Lunch Program
Oglesby ISD is pleased to announce it will continue its policy for serving meals to children served under the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program for the 2019-2020 school year. Our school qualifies to operate under the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) to provide breakfast and lunch to all children at no charge and eliminate the collection of meal applications for free, reduced-price, and paid student meals. This continued approach to our school breakfast and lunch programs helps ensure that students receive nutritious meals by reducing burdens for both families and school administrators.
