Ohio SB109 provides no-cost breakfast and lunch to students in public and chartered nonpublic schools.

Ohio SB109 amends the Revised Code to require public and chartered nonpublic schools participating in the national school breakfast and lunch programs to provide breakfast and lunch at no cost to students eligible for reduced-price meals. The bill repeals existing sections 3301.91 and 3313.819 of the Revised Code and appropriates $300,000,000 for fiscal years 2026 and 2027 to support these reimbursements. The Department of Education and Workforce will determine the manner in which these appropriations are maintained and used.
