Tombstone Unified School District #1 offers varied lunch and breakfast menus and sends a copy home with each elementary student at the beginning of each month. We take part in the National School Lunch Program and the School Breakfast Program. Students may qualify for reduced price or free lunch and breakfast. Applications are available at each school office and also on the menu page of our Web site. Please visit our School Menus page to see what we are serving each day and get other information on the nutritional services we offer here at Tombstone Unified School District #1.

The Tombstone Unified School District is pleased to provide a full lunch program. Through the Arizona Department of Education, the USDA supports child nutrition by setting nutritional and regulatory standards. The USDA financially subsidizes meals for all students. The rate of support is determined by household income. Therefore, all families are asked to submit an Application for School Meals form at the beginning of each school year and throughout the year if one's household income changes up or down. These forms, available at the school offices, will be used to determine which families are eligible for free or reduced price meals.

The meals provided are planned to meet the U.S. Dietary Guidelines for all Americans. Adult staff and un-enrolled students are welcome to purchase meals. The price of their meals is higher than the student price as no USDA subsidy is provided. The Governing Board establishes student and adult meal prices each year.

Families may prepay for meals on a weekly or monthly basis. Lunches may be purchased daily as well. Check with the Food Service Department or school office staff for additional information.

The Food Service Department's goal is to provide a quality, cost-effective child nutrition program.  Any food service staff member as well as the district's Food Service Manager will welcome your comments and suggestions.
