Crookston Public Schools Superintendent Jeremy Olson released a Communication earlier this evening reminding parents to fill out the free and reduced lunch applications for this school year. Below is the communication.
Free and Reduced Lunch Applications: We are asking our families to fill out free and reduced lunch applications if you have not already done so. These applications need to be in by October 1st. We will be waiving the $40 dollar technology fee and the $15 dollar kindergarten supply fee for any families that fill out this application by October 1st regardless of qualification status. This is easy and confidential. New for this year, we have created an electronic version that is easy to fill out and takes very little time. To fill out an electronic form go to Electronic Application, click on “apply for meals today”.
If you have questions about this application, need a paper application, or need access to a computer and internet please call the district office at 218-281-5313. We would be happy to assist you!
Why are these applications important for the school?
1) Qualifying applications maintain revenue known as compensatory aid which is state money that does not impact local taxes.
2) Qualifying applications determine how much Title I funding our schools receive.
