Mountain View School
WELCOME TO SCHOOL YEAR 2024-2025
A primary goal of our department is to produce healthier foods for our students and to help educate our students about healthy life-long nutrition. RSU 24's Wellness Policy and other Nutrition Services policies can be found on the RSU 24 website.
All RSU 24 schools are now participating in Community Eligibility Provision. This alternative is referred to as CEP. All students enrolled in RSU 24 schools may participate in the School Breakfast Program and the National School Lunch Program at no charge. Household WILL NOT be required to fill out the free and reduced lunch application this year but forms similar to applications may be distributed by the school to collect household income data for other programs that require this information, such as Fedreal Title programs. For additional information or question please contact Melinda Hellum [email protected] 207-422-2017 ext 2119.
Complimentary Super Snacks provided by the Child and Adult Care Feeding Program (CACFP) are served on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday every week. Service time is 3:00PM at the elementary schools and 2:30PM at the high school. Students do not have to be enrolled in any enrichment activity or be a student at the school to receive a Super Snack. For example, they could be from a visiting sports team.

As stated above all meals are complimentary. A la Carte purchases, such as milk purchased to accompany a lunch brought from home, are not complimentary and a student must have a positive balance on their account in order to purchase any a la carte items such as milk not included in a reimbursable meal. High School students may purchase a la carte items along with their meals, however they must have a positive balance or cash to purchase extra a la carte items.
