Happy Thursday everyone!
I wanted to send out a quick reminder about school funding and F/R lunch percentages. I know this year is challenging with the varying meal service models plus the fact the meals are now free. I can only imagine how confusing that must be for families when it comes to filling out their school meal applications. Either way, the system is currently set up to where school funding is tied to the results from those school meal applications so we need to ensure every family fills out the app by Oct 1st which is rapidly approaching!
Hunger Free Colorado has a toolkit available for you all to utilize with materials available in English and in Spanish. School Meal Application Toolkit
Please feel free to reach out with questions.
Have a great weekend!!
