Free and Reduced Price School Meals for Kutztown Area Students
Kutztown Area School District lets families apply for free or reduced price school breakfast and lunch for their children through a SchoolCafe account. The district participates in the School Breakfast Program and the National School Lunch Program.
To find out if your family is eligible, submit an application through your SchoolCafe account at schoolcafe.com. The district links to the federal National School Lunch Program Income Eligibility Guidelines at fns.usda.gov but does not print the income figures itself, so check those guidelines or ask the Food Service Department about your household size.
Applications are processed upon receipt, and households are informed of the results in a letter from the Food Service Department. Students receiving free or reduced price meals are not identified in any way, because confidentiality is ensured through the district's point of sale system.
Applications are accepted year round. For new applicants and for eligibility changes, eligibility is effective as of the application date. The district also posts a reminder that applications were required to be updated on or before October 7, 2026 for uninterrupted eligibility; that date has now passed, so if you have not updated yours, submit a new application as soon as you can and ask the Food Service Department what it means for your child's current status.
The district also posts a SchoolCafe eligibility walkthrough video for parents and meal application instructions in English and in Spanish.
If you would rather fill out the form on paper, you can request the NSLP application in paper format by calling 484-641-5543 or emailing kberk@kasd.org. For other district questions, the general number is 610-683-7361.
The page does not say what a reduced price meal costs, so ask the Food Service Department about meal prices.
