  • Free and Reduced-Price Meal

     Thanks to a Federal Program, all students, regardless of family income, are eligible to receive Free School Meals for the balance of the 20-21 school year

     This program will end on 6/30/21. In order to receive benefits other than free meals, such as reduced fees for testing, or other perks that normally go with free or reduced price eligibility, you will still need to have an approved application on file. 

    Having an approved application on file will also ensure that your child will continue to receive free meals when school starts again in September.

    APPLICATIONS FOR THE 2020-2021 SCHOOL ARE NOW AVAILABLE

    Please click on the link at the left labeled Applications for Free/ Reduced Price Meals to download a copy of the application

     Hard copies of the application are  available at the main office of your child's school. Only one application per family is needed. 

    For assistance with completing your application, please  contact nzeller@somersschools.org or call 914-248-6284

     

    Please note: a new application must be filed each school year, even if you qualified for benefits in the previous year.
