Dear parent or guardian:
We have good news to share about student meals. Beginning Sept. 8, all SPS students will be eligible to receive free meals due to an extension of federal funding. To assist families, the extension has been provided to ensure children have access to nutritious meals whether they are learning virtually or in the classroom.
Breakfast and lunch will be offered at no cost to all students, regardless of their Free or Reduced Meal status, through Dec. 31, 2020 or until the program funding is depleted.
Here is important information you need to know to participate:
