Dear Independence Local Schools Families,

We recognize that from time to time, families may experience changes in financial circumstances that make it difficult to keep up with school meal payments. If your situation has recently changed, we encourage you to reach out so we can provide guidance and support.

Families who may qualify for free or reduced-price meals are encouraged to complete an application using the link below. Submitting an application not only helps your family but also supports important funding for our schools.

Apply for Free and Reduced-Price Meals here.   

If your circumstances have changed and you need assistance with your child’s lunch account, please contact Francine Kane at fkane@independence.k12.oh.us or 216-642-5853 so we can work together to provide support.

Thank you for partnering with us to care for every child in our district.

Warm regards,

Francine Kane
Nutrition Supervisor
