- There will no longer be a need to collect free and reduced price applications for students who are in the CEP program and qualifying schools. CEP participating schools will have an “Income Survey” form to replace the no longer required free and reduced lunch applications
- For students who have siblings or other family members who are enrolled in non-CEP participating schools, families must complete applications for those students to receive free or reduced price benefits.
- SBISD believes that the Community Eligibility Provision will be good for all qualifying students and for our campuses, parents and communities. For questions, please call 713.251.1150.
Who can receive Free and Reduced Meals?
Children in households receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits (formerly the Food Stamp Program) or TANF can get free meals regardless of income.
Your benefit letter from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) is your documentation for free meals.
If you have not already received a letter from your school stating that your household is eligible for free meals, you may take your HHSC benefit letter to your child nutrition office to be certified for free meals.
Applications
Applications for Free and Reduced Meal Program cannot be accepted via fax or email. You may print out one of the following documents and return the completed and signed form to the SBISD campus convenient to you.
