A unified community educating the whole child
Food Services
East Ramapo Central School District believes that one of the most important ways in which we can help our children perform better in classrooms is to provide them with the nutrition necessary for the healthy growth of their minds and bodies. Therefore, we provide breakfast and lunch in our schools daily.
Fill out your meal certification form today!
We are pleased to announce that we will be implementing a meal certification option available to schools participating in the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs for 2024-25.
All students enrolled are eligible to receive a healthy breakfast and lunch at no charge to your household each day of the 2024-2025 school year. It is important that households complete the income form in order to determine additional state and federal program benefits that your child might qualify for. You can fill out the printed form or fill it out online.
