Free Lunch at Roosevelt -CEP

Dear Parent or Guardian:

We are pleased to inform you that Roosevelt Elementary School will be continuing the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) while participating in the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs for School Year.

What does this mean for you and your children attending Roosevelt Elementary School?

All Roosevelt students are eligible for a free breakfast and a free lunch daily.  This does not include extra milk, cold lunch milk, or ala carte purchases.

The district will still be requesting applications from households with a student participating in the CEP; however, receipt of free breakfast and lunch meals does not depend on returning it. Completing the application is still necessary for other programs and may be used to determine if your household is eligible for these additional benefits.

If we can be of any further assistance, please contact us at 608-743-5132.
