The cost of lunch for students enrolled in Patrick County Public Schools is increasing, according to a notice from the Food Services Division.
The cost of elementary school lunches will go from $1.85 to $1.95.
Meals at the Patrick County High School will increase, from $1.95 to $2, according to the notice.
The increases were necessary due to a notice from the Virginia Department of Education, which informed the division must increase the lunch prices this year.
This increase was mandated by the Healthy Hunger Free Kids Acts of 2010.
