Free & Reduced School Lunch

Beginning in August of 2020, waivers provided by the USDA allowed Sevier County Schools to provide both breakfast and lunch to all students at no cost, regardless of income status or school attended. These federal waivers are expiring on June 30, 2022. Due to this expiration, we will no longer be able to continue this program.

For the upcoming 2022-2023 school year, the only students that will receive free or reduced price meals are those meeting the eligibility requirements of the USDA Free and Reduced Price Meal Program. Free and Reduced Price Meal Applications will be available at all school sites during the summer and at the beginning of the new school year. Applications may also be completed online AFTER July 15, 2022 by visiting the Online Free & Reduced School Meals Application form.
