Updates from the DPI School Nutrition Team
End of the School Year
As we come close to the end or the end of the school year, it is very important to get information out to households about the return to the traditional school meals programs based on individual eligibility and the need to complete the USDA Free and Reduced-Price School Meals Applications. USDA is working on communication tools for this purpose. Once available, this will be shared with SFAs.
