National School Lunch Program

BASIS Baton Rouge Materra will be participating in the School Breakfast Program and the National School Lunch Program. As part of this program, BASIS Baton Rouge Materra will offer healthy meals every school day. Breakfast will cost $2.50, and lunch will cost $4.00. Your child(ren) may qualify for free meals or for reduced-price meals. Reduced-price priced meals will be provided at no cost to the student. Studies have shown that children whose nutritional needs are met have fewer attendance and discipline problems and are more attentive in class. A good school breakfast and lunch is not only essential to academic achievement but is also essential to a healthy life. Please contact Shandi Fazely ([email protected])with any questions.
