We have received information from DCFS regarding P-EBT benefits for the 21-22 school year. Only students that qualify for free or reduced lunch, either directly through the SNAP program or through a 21-22 Free and Reduced School Meals Application, who miss a school day specifically due to Covid will receive benefits.

Please note that even though all of our students eat breakfast and lunch free this school year, they are not all Free or Reduced eligible. If you did not receive your letter of eligibility from DWCS stating that your student qualifies for benefits and your student either receives SNAP or you filled out an application, email foodservice@darbonnewoods.com to confirm your eligibility. If your student is not directly certified through SNAP and you did not fill out an application THIS school year, you are not currently eligible and will not receive benefits for the months you weren’t eligible for benefits.

If you want to fill out a Free/Reduced Meals Application, please pick up an application at the high school or elementary school offices. Fill it out and return it as soon as possible.

Additional information is provided in the attached flyers.

Thank you for your attention to this matter and please email foodservice@darbonnewoods.com with any questions.
