Summer Meals Program: Over the past couple of weeks our Director of Food Service has mailed our Free & Reduced Meals applications to all of the families in the New Hampton School district who had not previously applied in hopes of getting enough kids signed up to be able to once again be able to offer free summer meals to our entire school district. If you have not yet returned the application, please do so as soon as possible. The deadline for the district to sign up for the Summer Meals Program is May 1st! If you lost or misplaced the application and need a new one, please contact the school or you can download one from the website under "Documents". If you have questions, please contact Jodi Cerwinske at (641) 394-2134 ext. 1120 or j_cerwinske@new-hampton.k12.ia.us
