Alief ISD Transitions Back to Application Requirement for Free and Reduced-Price School MealsBack to School and Back to Normal in the CafeteriaHouston, TX - During the COVID-19 pandemic, Congress authorized spending that allowed schools to serve free meals for all students. Those funds are not authorized to continue for the 2022-2023 school year. As a result, Alief ISD must return to charging for school meals and offering free and reduced-priced meals based on student eligibility. Starting on July 19, 2022, Alief ISD will begin distributing letters and applications to the households of the children in the district about eligibility benefits. Families are encouraged to complete the Application for Freed and Reduced-Price School Meals, also available at www.schoolcafe.com and return the completed form online or to any school office.The application will determine a child's eligibility for free and reduced-price meals and may assist in the determination of eligibility for other state or federal benefits. Only one application needs to be completed per household. Schools will notify the household of the child's eligibility. The Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) administers school nutrition programs in Texas and offers an eligibility calculator at www.SquareMeals.org/ProgramEligibility.Decisions regarding payment for school meals are at the national-government level, not by the school nutrition team or TDA. The dedicated staff at Alief ISD is looking forward to serving healthy, balanced meals to students in the new school year. These meals, whether paid, free, or reduced-price, offer a good source of nutrition for children.
Please note that if you received a notification letter that a child is directly certified for free or reduced-price meals, do not complete an application.
