Announcements

  • All students receive one breakfast and one lunch free of charge each day at school.  Additional meals can be purchased as following: breakfast $3.00 and lunch is $5.25.
  •  If a student just wants to take milk, the price would be 50 cents. 
  • Under free school meals, only complete meals are funded. To qualify as a free/complete meal, the student must take at least 3 food components, one of the 3 components must be a 1/2 cup fruit or vegetable. If a student would only like 1 or 2 components AND/OR declines to take a full 1/2 cup serving of fruit or vegetable, the cost of their meal will correspond to the stated meal prices.

 

Application for Educational Benefits

Families must reapply every August; the benefit period from the first day of school until the last day of school.

Every ISD 622 family should complete an Application for Educational Benefits (Free or reduced meals) on the LINQ Connect website. The application helps us identify families who need assistance, and also may provide families with discounted rates on athletics and activities fees, and testing fees, among others. Completed applications also allow District 622 to receive funding for classroom programming. This funding helps us stretch our local dollars further.

Families must complete a new form each school year. Also, families who have completed an application and experienced a change in household income or size are encouraged to complete a new one.

The online application process is safe, secure, private, and available anytime, anywhere!

To find our district search, ISD 622 North St. Paul-Maplewood-Oakdale School District (Minnesota).

Qualifying families can get discounts on classes and swimming lessons from District 622 Community Education.

Special Diets

School District 622 recognizes the importance of special dietary needs due to allergy and special diet concerns. In accordance with federal USDA regulations, the Special Diet Statement form must be completed and signed by the parent/guardian as well as the child’s licensed physician before any accommodations are made. A copy of the form must be given to the nutrition services site manager and the school health office.

Parents or guardians are encouraged to visit with the nutrition services site manager to review their child's form and specific needs.
