  • Any student in Vestavia Hills City School System is eligible to apply for free or reduced price meal benefits.  A family application is available online each school year AFTER JULY 1st.  Applications are also available in the front office of each school.  The application needs to be COMPLETED  ENTIRELY and returned to your child’s school registrar or Child Nutrition Manager.  The completed application may also be returned to the Child Nutrition Department at the Vestavia Hills City Schools central office. 

    * ALL sections on the application must be completed to prevent delays in the approval process for your child. 

    * A notification letter will be mailed to the student's parents/guardians after the application process is approved.   

    * Only one application per family needs to be completed. 

    * A new application MUST be completed EACH school year. (The date on the application must correspond to the current school year.) 

    * New students applying for free or reduced benefits are responsible for paying regular meal prices until benefits are issued.

  • Vestavia Hills City Schools understand that certain children have special dietary needs and will make all reasonable accommodations for those needs.  Any student who requires special dietary needs must have a medical statement on file in their school's Child Nutrition office prior to meals being prepared for the student.  Please access the Diet Prescription Form for Meals at School on the left, print, complete, and return it to your child's school.
