Ithaca Minute – School lunch prices, Albany Street closure, recycling pickup


Listen Later

Here’s the Ithaca Minute for September 5th!

All school lunches in the Ithaca City School District will be a little more expensive this school year, and the district says it’s “due to new United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) guidelines.”

Full-price lunch prices will go up by 5 cents across the board, with elementary school lunch now $2.60, middle school lunch now $2.85, and high school lunch now $3.10. Breakfast prices remain the same as last year, at $1.50, $1.75, and $2.00, respectively, and milk costs 75 cents at all schools.

Families can apply for free or reduced-price meals using an application the district has sent to families they believe are eligible based on a list from New York State. The application is also available on the ICSD web site.

The 300 and 400 blocks of South Albany Street will be closed to thru traffic during work hours starting today as crews perform gas line work. The project should be finished in early October.

And remember the Labor Day holiday means trash and recycling pickup is delayed one day for the rest of the week.
