Annual Household Eligibility Form - Application for School Meal Benefits

 

Even though breakfast and lunch are available at no cost to all California public school students, completing the Annual Household Eligibility Form remains incredibly important.
 
If your household qualifies, this single application may unlock valuable benefits for your family while helping Fountain Valley School District receive additional funding to support students, schools, and educational programs.
 

Filling out the form helps bring critical funding and essential services to your child's school and our district. Your participation makes a difference!

Even if your child does not eat school lunch, students who qualify also can receive other benefits like:

  • Fee waiver for after-school programs
  • Fee waiver or discount for bus passes
  • Discounts for your family on utilities and internet service

How does filling out this form help my school?

  • Schools may become eligible for money to fund after-school programs.
  • Schools get more money in their budgets to support students.
  • FVSD qualifies to receive more money per student from the state and federal government.

Is this information confidential?

  • Personal information submitted on the form is not shared with the state or federal government; only the number of students who qualify for free or reduced lunch is shared.
  • Principals and teachers are not told which students qualify for these benefits.
  • FVSD does not share information with other organizations that provide benefits. But if your child does qualify, you may use the eligibility form provided by FVSD to qualify for other benefits through providers like PG&E and Comcast.
  • If your child qualifies and chooses to eat lunch at school, the breakfast and lunch process is the same as a student who is paying full price.

ANNUAL HOUSEHOLD ELIGIBILITY - APPLICATION FOR SCHOOL MEAL BENEFITS

Why does the application still mention "Free and Reduced-Price Meals"?

The Annual Household Eligibility Form is the federal application used nationwide to determine eligibility for school meal benefits. In California, meals are already available at no cost to all students, but the application is still used to determine eligibility for additional family benefits and important school funding.

* NOTE * Paper applications will still be available at your child's school site *
