Amazing news!!! 🥳🥳🥳

🎉 Big News, Huntsville School District! 🎉

Did you hear the good news?! Starting next school year, 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐜𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐮𝐬 in the Huntsville School District, including both Huntsville and St. Paul, will receive 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗹𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗱𝗮𝘆!

After years of working toward this goal, we are proud to announce that HSD has officially qualified for the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP). This means no meal applications will be required, and all students will eat free through the 2028–2029 school year.

This accomplishment was made possible by two major efforts:
• Our Identified Student Percentage (ISP) stayed above 25%, qualifying us for CEP.
• Our Free & Reduced Applications surpassed 70%, allowing us to increase our ESA funding to afford this.

This incredible opportunity wouldn’t be possible without our families and community, who supported the free/reduced lunch application process. Because of that support, we were able to lock in funding to make this dream a reality.

Let’s celebrate together because in HSD, everyone eats!
