Section 11 of the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act ( 42 U.S.C. 1759a ) is amended by inserting after subsection
(e)the following: The Secretary shall identify, for optional use in local educational agencies on or near Indian reservations, alternatives to— the daily counting by category of meals provided by school lunch programs under this Act and the school breakfast program established by section 4 of the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 ( 42 U.S.C. 1773 ); the use of annual applications as the basis for eligibility to receive free meals or reduced price meals under this Act; and the use of universal meal service described in subsections (a)(1)(F) and (g). Alternatives described in paragraph
(1)may be— implemented for use in schools or by school food authorities that agree— to serve all breakfasts and lunches to all students at no cost; to pay, from sources other than Federal funds, the costs of serving any lunches and breakfasts that are in excess of the value of assistance received under this Act or the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 ( 42 U.S.C. 1771 et seq. ), as determined by the Secretary, with respect to the number of lunches and breakfasts served during the applicable period; and not to collect applications for free or reduced price meals; or further tested through demonstration projects carried out by the Secretary in accordance with paragraph (3). For the purpose of carrying out demonstration projects described in paragraph (2)(B), the Secretary may waive any requirement of this Act relating to— counting and claiming of meals provided by school lunch or breakfast programs; and determinations of eligibility for free or reduced price meals. .
