Milford Schools proudly offers both breakfast and lunch to our students each school day. Our team is committed to serving nutritious meals that fuel learning and support student success.

We encourage you to explore the links below for menus, meal pricing, payment options, and important program information.

Reminder: Applications Required

Families must complete a new meal application each school year to determine eligibility for meal benefits.

Continuing this year: The Ohio Budget Bill will fully subsidize meals for students who qualify as “reduced” (but not “free”). This means eligible students will receive breakfast (if applicable) and lunch at no cost.

Please note:

• Second meals are not covered under this program.

• Qualifying for reduced meals does not automatically waive school fees.

1. Students must take 1/2 cup of fruit and/or vegetable to count as a meal.

2. The five meal components are:

• Meat/Meat Alternative: Minimum of 1 oz. serving grades K-8 daily; 9 weekly. Minimum 2 oz. serving grades 9-12 daily; 10 weekly. Meat/Meat alternates consist of: lean meat, cheese, eggs, beans, yogurt, No Nut butter or seeds.

• Grains/Breads: Minimum 1 serving (1 oz. equivalent) daily with minimum 8 weekly for grades K-8; Minimum 2 servings (1 oz. equivalent) daily with a minimum of 10 weekly for grades 9-12.

• Fruits: Minimum ½ cup for grades K-8 daily; 1 cup for grades 9-12 daily.

• Vegetables: Minimum 3/4 cup for grades K-8 daily; 1 cup for grades 9-12 daily. All grades require selections from five different subgroups (dark-green leafy, red/orange, beans/legumes, starchy, other) to meet this component.

• Fluid Milk: Minimum 8 oz. for grades K-12 daily.

3. We implement a program called "Offer versus Serve" in all of our lunchrooms. This initiative aims to reduce food waste by giving children the choice to select three out of the five meal components available at lunch. While students have this flexibility, we encourage them to choose all five components for a more balanced and nutritious meal.
