Michigan School Meals provide quality food that fuels good education. The new state investment allows all students to eat one breakfast and one lunch for free each day of the entire school year if they choose.
Even though all meals are free for the 2023-24 school year, there are other education benefits provided to the district, individual school building, or household that require an individual student benefit (free, reduced, paid) to be determined each year.
We’re asking every family to complete and submit either the School Meal Application or Education Benefits Form (formerly the Household Information Report.) The information collected is used to provide additional services and benefits beyond school meals, like resources for classrooms, teachers, and children, guidance and college counselors, and health and wellness services. Summer EBT benefits are also available for eligible households. Talk to your school about which form you need.

DKHS STUDENTS IN ACTION
Biology
Our high school biology students recently explored the fascinating world of classification thanks to our school's extensive natural science collection. This collection houses specimens from various kingdoms, including animals, plants, and fungi, offering students a firsthand look at the diversity of life on Earth.
Armed with their science journals, students sketched and documented the unique characteristics of these organisms, deepening their understanding of biodiversity and the importance of preserving it. This hands-on experience highlighted the dynamic nature of classification, emphasizing its role in our evolving understanding of the natural world. Delton Kellogg High School's natural science collection remains a valuable resource for inspiring curiosity and scientific discovery among our students.
