Previously known as Free/Reduced Priced School Meal Application, the OSPI Child Nutrition program has introduced an updated application called the Child Nutrition Eligibility & Education Benefit (CNEEB) Application.
This application may qualify you for: school meal benefits, Summer EBT benefits (if enrolled in a NSLP/SBP school), and/or reduced fees for other programs and activities. If your child(ren) are enrolled in a Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) or Provision 2 school, completing this application will not impact your eligibility to receive meals at no cost.
Additionally, the information provided can help schools secure additional funding and resources to enhance educational programs and services. By taking the time to complete this form, you are directly contributing to your child's well-being and academic success, as well as supporting the broader school community.
We strongly encourage ALL parents/guardians to submit a Meal Application. Completing an application takes less than 10 minutes, and families only need to submit ONE application per family with all the children in the household.
Did You Know? Foster children and students receiving benefits from state programs such as Basic Food or Medicaid automatically qualify for free/reduced priced meals!
Please contact your student's school if you have any questions or need assistance completing the form.
