Dear Roaring Fork Families,

Welcome to a new school year! We are thrilled to share that ALL enrolled students in Roaring Fork Schools will continue to receive a FREE breakfast and lunch each school day through December 2025. Although all students will receive meals at no cost, it is very important that each household completes the: Educational Benefits Application: School Fees & Meals for school district funding and fee exemption eligibility.

Completing this application helps our district receive vital funding and may qualify your student for additional school-related support. This may include: Waived school fees, discounted athletic fees, reduced fees for SAT, ACT, and AP exams, eligibility for Summer EBT benefits, state and federal funding for classrooms, technology, and student support.

Important Information:

For families at schools where meals are provided at no cost to all students through the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP), this form still plays a crucial role in ensuring access to other education-based benefits.

The fastest and easiest way to complete the application is online through the RFSD Parent Portal by clicking the following link:

If you need help setting up an account, please contact your school’s main office for support.

By submitting this form, you are helping Roaring Fork Schools provide better services for all students. Our school meals follow USDA nutritional guidelines and when families choose school meals, our district receives more funding to support local jobs and healthy learning environments. We deeply appreciate your time and partnership in supporting your child’s success.

Healthy Regards,

RFSD Food & Nutrition Services
