All students in the Steamboat Springs School District will have access to free, healthy and nutritious school meals for the 2024-2025 school year thanks to the Health School Meals for All program approved by Colorado voters.

Here is some additional information and a few important reminders about what this means for schools and families:

Please continue to fill out the Free and Reduced-Price School Meals Form. While meals will be provided for free to all SSSD students through Healthy School Meals for All, it’s important for the district to continue gathering this information to receive full access to available federal funds that support nutritional programs at your school. By providing this information, families will help our district access all available funds to cover the cost of meals and other nutritional programs for students.

How to Apply

Families can apply for Free and Reduced-Price School Meals at any time throughout the school year. Apply by either filling out a form or online via LINQ Connect. Click on School Services in the upper right-hand corner and select “Free and Reduced-Meal Application.” 

Families who fill out the form may qualify to receive discounted school fees, class materials, bus passes, utilities support and more. All household income information provided through this form is strictly confidential and protected by law.
