The first day of school is off to a great start. We are so excited to have our students back in the building. Below are some reminders for families as we start the year.
Free and Reduced Lunch Applications - These are in your students back to school folders that they received either today or at open house if you were here on Monday. These must be completed and returned to the school each year in order for your student to receive free or reduced price meals if they qualify. Applications are also available in the office if you need another copy. Only one application is needed per family and applies for all of your children. Breakfast costs $2.20 and lunch is $2.80. Reduced prices are $0.30 for breakfast and $0.40 for lunch. Information about qualifying family incomes is in the packet but please reach out to us if you have other questions. Students who qualified last year do have a small grace period (30 days) in which their status from last year carries over. If we do not receive an application, then they are a full paid price student and will be charged full lunch and breakfast prices. It is important that this form is returned as soon as possible. If your status changes during the year, a new application can be submitted at any time.
TeacherEase parent portal is available for all families. The parent portal allows you to view and track your student's information such as attendance, grades, and lunch account charges and balances. If you need help logging in or need set up for a parent portal, email Mr. Prugh at cprugh@gfr2.k12.mo.us.
Don't forget to download the Green Forest app. All information from the website is in the app and it is just one more way to stay informed on all things Green Forest.
Picture Day is August 30th. Packets went home in the back to school packet.
Once again, thank you for all you do to support the Forest. It is great to be a Mustang.
