Haldane Requests Exemption for School Breakfast Program
Still participating in free/reduced price meal program, applications available at the school
Haldane School has announced that they have requested an exemption for their school breakfast program for the 2007-2008 school year. According to the school district, low participation in the program has prompted this request.
The School District has also announced that it will once again be participating in the free and reduced price meal program for its school children. Families must complete an application to be eligible for free, or reduced price, meals served at the school.
A sliding scale is used to determine eligibility, with household incomes lower than $63,955.00 becoming qualified for at least partial participation depending on family size. Applications are available at the school and can be submitted anytime during the school year. The information provided on the application will be confidential and will be used only for the purpose of determining eligibility. The information may also be used for the allocation of funds to schools under Title I and by the United States Department of Education in the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP).
For details on the program and who would qualify under the income guidelines, contact the school district.
