Update  on  the  Community   Eligibility  Provision  (CEP)-­‐ Lunch  Program,     Mr.  Gress    

Community Eligibility Program August 19, 2014

v  Lunch

program where all children may eat free

v Section 104(a) of the Healthy, Hunger Free Kids Act of 2010 amended the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act to provide an alternative to household eligibility applications for free and reduced price meals in high poverty Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) (or districts) and schools. v CEP is a 4-year reimbursement option for eligible high poverty LEA’s. v CEP schools use an approved percentage for meal claiming purposes. This approved percentage is determined based on the number of Identified Students enrolled in the school. v An LEA may participate in CEP for some or all schools in the LEA.

v To be eligible for CEP a school must:

v Have a minimum level of (40%) ‘Identified Students’ as of April 1 in the year prior to implementing CEP. v Agree to serve free lunches AND breakfasts to all students for up to four consecutive years v Agree to cover with non-federal funds any costs of providing meals at no cost to all students above amounts provided in Federal assistance v No collect free and reduced price household eligibility applications from households in participating schools during the period of participation in the CEP program. v Count total breakfasts and lunches served to students; and v NOT be a residential child care institution (RCCI) as that term is set forth in the definition of “School” in 7 CFR 210.2.

v  Directly

certified for free meals on the basis of their participation in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), income eligible Medicaid, foster children and the extension of benefits to students within the same household.

v  Homeless v  Runaway v  Migrant youth v  Head Start

v  Our

enrollment on April 1, 2014 was 458 v  We have identified 290 students v  Our percentage is 63.31% v  The factor for free lunch is 1.6 v  1.6 X 290 = 464

v  Because our percentage exceed the total enrollment as of April 1st we are eligible to have our entire school eat free breakfast/lunch
