New Hanover County Board of Education Approves Meal Price Increase

At last night's New Hanover County Board of Education meeting, the Board members approved a price increase for breakfast and lunch meals. Beginning July 1, 2009, students in all grades will pay $1.25 for breakfast, and students in grades K-5 will pay $2.00 for lunch. The price increases reflect an additional five cents for breakfast, for all grades, and twenty cents for elementary lunch.

The cost increase is due to an increase in workers' compensation, health benefit rates, food cost increases and other operational expenses.

For more information, contact Imer Smith, Director of Child Nutrition Department, at 910-254-4212.
