Students & families: we know the government shutdown and loss of SNAP benefits may be creating challenges for families in our community. Please know:
⭐ The National School Lunch program is still running. Anyone who has applied and been approved for SNAP will continue to get free breakfast/lunches at school during the government shutdown.
⭐ The Free and Reduced meal application (FRAM) is still available through the Center School District Parent Portal and is still being processed and approved by the district.
⭐ Please reach out to the social workers, counselors, and administrators at your school if you have questions or need assistance.
Reminder, Center families❗
There will be no school on Thursday, Oct. 30, Friday, Oct. 31, or Monday, Nov. 3 due to Parent/Teacher Conferences and staff professional development.
Classes resume Tuesday, Nov. 4.
Enjoy the long weekend, and we’ll see you back on Tuesday! 🐝
