The Austintown Local School District is excited to announce that school breakfast and school lunch meals will be free for all students from Pre-K through 12th grade for the 2024-2025 school year.

Students can simply come through the cafeteria line to receive free breakfast and lunch every school day.

Extras and a la carte items will still be available to purchase.

There is no need to apply to receive free meals, however the district still encourages families to fill out an Income Form to qualify for other programs.

For more information, visit the Food Services Department website.
