SAISD Eyes Student Meal Price Increase Amid Rising Costs

San Angelo ISD is expected to consider a small increase in student meal prices at its meeting. The proposal would raise paid lunch prices by 25 cents to meet federal requirements and rising costs. District leaders say current prices fall below the required threshold. Free breakfast would remain available for students. Reduced‑price meals would stay the same at 40 cents. Officials say the changes are needed to keep the program sustainable.
