CLARKSTON, WA – The Clarkston School District has announced that all students enrolled in grades TK–12 will receive free breakfast and lunch during the 2025–2026 school year. Meals will be served every school day through federally supported school meal programs.
Although meals will be provided at no charge, the district is encouraging families to complete the Child Nutrition Eligibility & Education Benefit Application. Submitting the form may qualify households for additional benefits, including Summer EBT food assistance, reduced fees for school programs and activities, and added funding to support district schools.
Only one application is required per household, and all information submitted will remain confidential. Families may qualify based on income, participation in programs such as Basic Food or TANF, or foster child status.
The district has made the full 2025–2026 Letter to Households available online. The letter includes income eligibility guidelines, application instructions, and further details on benefits.
Parents or guardians with questions regarding the application or eligibility may contact the Clarkston School District Food Services Department at 509-769-6346.
