9.A.10. Consider action on the Cafeteria Adult/Visitor Meal Prices Description: The cafeteria prices must be approved by the board each year. The district has been under the Community Eligibility Provision Program which allows all students to eat both breakfast and lunch free of charge. So we do not have student meal prices to worry about currently. We must still set a rate for adults and visitors. A visitor is not determined by age, meaning an eight year old visitor pays the adult price.
