Welcome to the 2022-2023 school year!
Changes to Free and Reduced Lunch -- Applications Required This Year
Important changes have been made at the federal level to the Free and Reduced Meals Program. For Milford Schools families, this means a return to pre-pandemic operations. For the previous two school years, no forms or applications were required.
However, for the 2022-2023 school year, all families who wish to participate in the program must complete an application. Parents, guardians and caregivers will be able to complete these forms beginning August 1 using QuikApps as part of the PaySchools parent portal.
Parents may apply for Free/Reduced meals (or re-apply if their economic situation changes) at any time throughout the school year at Payschoolscentral.com, or you can obtain a paper application from your child’s school. Please keep in mind that any charges that occur prior to the approval of an application will be the responsibility of the parent to pay.
