Elementary students will have to scrape together three more dimes for lunch this year. Based on a new state formula for calculating lunch prices, according to Superintendent of Crittenden County Schools Rachel Yarbrough, all students in the district will be paying $2 for lunch. This amounts to a 30-cent increase for students at the elementary school Middle and high school students will be paying the same as last year.Breakfast prices will remain the same at $1.20, as will those for reduced-rate meals — 30 cents for breakfast and 40 cents for lunch — according to the district’s food services director, Janet Stevens.
