Creates a new statewide option for school meals starting with school years that begin on or after July 1, 2025. If a State chooses to participate and uses non‑Federal funds to ensure local districts receive the free-meal reimbursement rate for every breakfast and lunch served at participating schools, the usual eligibility math changes. Under this option, the State can calculate identified-student percentages across the whole State, apply the standard multiplier, and remove the minimum threshold (set to zero). This makes it easier for States to offer no‑charge school meals in participating schools while the State covers any gap not paid by Federal reimbursements.
