Children from households whose income is at or below the levels shown are eligible for free or reduced-price meals. Application forms are available on the Student Records Portal. To apply for free or reduced-price meals, households should fill out the application that is available on the Student Records Portal. The information provided on the application is confidential and will be used for the purpose of determining eligibility and may be verified at any time during the school year by school or other program officials. Applications may be submitted at any time during the year.

For school officials to determine eligibility, households receiving SNAP, Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF), or Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) must list each child’s name, the related SNAP, TANF, or FDPIR case number, and the signature of an adult household member. If you do not list a SNAP, TANF, or FDPIR case number for all the children you are applying for, then the application must include the children’s names, the names of all household members, the amount of income each person received last month and where it came from, the signature of an adult household member, and that adult’s Social Security number, or the adult must mark the box indicating they do not have a Social Security number.

In certain cases, foster children are eligible for free or reduced-price meals or free milk regardless of the child’s income. If you have foster children living with you and wish to apply for such meals or milk for them, please contact us.

Under the provisions of the policy, Secondary Principal Phillip Major will review applications and determine eligibility.

Parents or guardians wishing to make a formal appeal may make a request either orally or in writing to:

Brandon Voss, Superintendent
P.O. Box 10
Calumet, OK 73014

for a hearing to appeal the decision.

The household of a child currently certified to receive SNAP, TANF, or FDPIR benefits will be notified of the child’s eligibility and that the child will be provided free benefits unless the household notifies the school that it chooses to decline benefits. If SNAP, TANF, and FDPIR households are not notified by August 28, 2026, of their eligibility, they will need to submit an application.
