Message from Nutrition Services

We recognize that economic situations change throughout the year for families in our community. At this time of year with the new semester, we want to remind all Eastern Carver County Schools families that free and reduced price meals are available for students who qualify. Parents/guardians may apply for meal benefits at any point throughout the year, and as often as their financial situation or household size changes. This includes temporary situations like changes in seasonal work.

For more information about the Application for Educational Benefits, go to eccs.mn/nutrition. If you have additional questions, please contact Julie Eklund, Nutrition Services Specialist, at 952-556-6152 or EklundJ@district112.org .

Recess During Winter Months

Indoor recess will be held when the actual temperature is at zero degrees or below, or the wind chill is -10 degrees or below. It is best to assume that students will participate in outdoor recess and to dress them accordingly.
