Free and Reduced Lunch Forms
Even though school lunches are free again this year it is still important for every family to complete the free and reduced lunch forms. These forms help the school in qualifying for Title I services for DES. This packet serves as a means for us to assist low-income families and aids the state and federal government in gauging the number of economically disadvantaged children in our school. Completing this paperwork strengthens our eligibility for entitlements and state funding, which directly benefits our school and its programs.
23-24 LUNCH FORM PACKET
Please complete forms.
