We've also attached an informational flyer that provides more info about our meal services in the district.
Below are the most commonly asked questions about the Household Income Form, along with their answers. We hope you will join us in further supporting our learners.
What is the Household Income Form?
The form collects basic information about your learner so our school can determine if they would otherwise be eligible for free or reduced-price breakfast/lunch. It is important for EVERY family to fill out this form because doing so helps bring much-needed additional money and services directly to our school! This form should be submitted each year by October 1, but will also be accepted after that date. If you have any questions, please contact Susan Frank at (518) 464-5133 or [email protected].
If all meals are free, why do we have to complete this form?
School districts receive funding from the state and federal governments. For each learner who would qualify for free or reduced-price breakfast/lunch, schools receive additional dollars in funding. Even a small increase in completed Household Income Eligibility forms collected results in significantly more money to support our learners.
Is the Information I submit confidential?
Yes, the information you submit on the Household Income Eligibility Form is not shared by our school. Personal information submitted on the form is not shared with the state or federal government; only the number of learners who would otherwise qualify for free or reduced breakfast/lunch is shared.
District personnel are not told which learners would otherwise qualify for free or reduced breakfast/lunch benefits. Our school does not share information with other organizations that provide benefits. If you complete the secure online form, you won’t enter the exact household income, only an income range.
Our Household doesn’t qualify for free or reduced price meals, do I still need to complete the form?
Yes. If you do not wish to be considered for eligibility, please complete the online form indicating income range.
If you have any further questions, please call Susan Frank at (518) 464-5133.
