10. Free & Reduced Lunch Applications- Complete ASAP
To ensure your child continues to receive school meals without interruption, we urge you to complete a new meal application as soon as possible. Applications can be submitted online by visiting www.myschoolapps.com.
Please note: If your student previously attended Lake Forest Elementary, unlike LFE, Ridgeview is NOT a Community Eligibility Provision school. This means students do not automatically receive free meals at breakfast or lunch, but must complete an application in order to do so.
If you have any questions or need assistance, contact the Fulton County School Free & Reduced Team at 470-254-2220 or FreeandReduced@fultonschools.org.
