School Food Service Price Increases
Direct fee increase raises daily costs for families paying for school meals at CMS and EHS.
Potential increases to school meal prices are under review by the school board. Action was delayed in April 2026 until a new director completed a full year; in May the board requested additional data before any approval.
School food service price increases first came before the board during its April 21, 2026 meeting as part of a broader revenue discussion.
At that meeting the board decided to delay any meal price increases until a new food services director had been in place for a full year.
The topic returned on May 19, 2026 under the Financial and Food Service Reports agenda item, where a formal proposal to raise prices was presented alongside current-year financials.
The board responded by requesting more detailed data before taking any action on the proposal.
The potential change would affect students and families through an increase in the daily cost of school meals.
No further action has been recorded since the May request for additional information.
The board's earlier decision to delay remains in effect pending the new data.
