It is our goal to balance providing appealing and nutritious daily meal choices to students and staff and the operation of a financially sound school nutrition program that complies with state and federal school lunch regulations.

As of June 30, 2022, the federal government is no longer allowing all schools to serve free meals to all students.  Free and reduced meals are available to those who qualify but you must apply for benefits.

The School Nutrition Department is accepting applications for part-time or substitute Nutrition Associates.  One large benefit of the position is the ability to work in a cafeteria and be home when your child gets home.   For additional information and application, click here.  You may also call (540) 562-3788 for more information.

Meal applications for school year 2022-2023 are now being accepted!

Online applications are available here.

Paper applications will be available at school sites starting August 11, 2022.

All students enrolled at Burlington Elementary, Herman L. Horn Elementary, Masons Cove Elementary, Mount Pleasant Elementary, Mountain View Elementary and W.E. Cundiff Elementary will eat for free as part of the Community Eligibility Provision as implemented under the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010.  Households with students attending these schools will not be required to submit a meal application form for these students to receive meals at no charge.

Online meal account payments are now being accepted!

Visit LINQ Connect at https://linqconnect.com to set up an account.  Online payments have a processing fee of $2.60 per transaction. Parent/guardians can set up a free account to monitor student purchases.
