Important: Changes to Free & Reduced-Price Meals
π’ Mahone Families,
Beginning with the 2026β27 school year, KUSD is transitioning from a districtwide Community Eligibility Program (CEP) to a partial CEP model.
As a result, Mahone Middle School will return to the traditional Free/Reduced/Paid meal model. Families who may qualify for free or reduced-price meals will need to complete an application.
π Free & Reduced-Price Meal Applications Are Now Open!
We encourage all Mahone families who may qualify to complete the annual application. In addition to helping determine eligibility for free or reduced-price meals, completing the application can help families access additional benefits, including:
β’ Title I support for additional academic services, instructional support, and resources
β’ Athletics fee waivers
β’ Fine arts fee waivers
β’ AP testing fee waivers

Direct Certification
Some students are automatically eligible for free or reduced-price meals through Direct Certification. This may apply to students who are foster children or whose households participate in programs such as FoodShare (SNAP), W-2/TANF, Medicaid, or FDPIR.
If your student is directly certified for free meals, you do not need to complete a meal application.
If your student is directly certified for reduced-price meals, you may still want to complete the application based on your household size and income to see if additional benefits are available.
π Please take a few minutes to complete the application if you believe your family may qualify. Your participation helps support both your student and our school community!
