Free and Reduced Price Meals

Your child may be eligible to receive free or reduced price school meals.

For most families, you will find it easiest to apply online at https://linqconnect.com/public/meal-application (select "Mansfield School District - CT" as your District). This online application is available in 10 language translations (click the 3 lines in the upper left corner of the online application to pick a language).

We also have a step-by-step help guide for the above online application. The State of Connecticut provides Frequently Asked Questions about Free and Reduced School Meals: English Version or Spanish Version.

Alternately, instead of applying online, you can choose to download the paper application in English Version or Spanish Version to print at home, or you can request a paper copy at our Central Office located in the Mansfield Town Hall.

Students eligible for reduced price school meals can purchase breakfast for $0.30 and lunch for $0.40. Students eligible for free price school meals are not charged for breakfast and lunch. In both cases, this applies for up to 1 breakfast per school day and up to 1 lunch per school day.
