The following forms are adopted with and considered part of this policy: Frequently Asked Questions About Free and Reduced Price School Meals - Free Milk Application - Free and Reduced Price School Meals Family Application Application Form - Free Milk Application - Free and Reduced Price School Meals Family Application Sharing Information with Other Programs Approval-Disapproval Form Public Release - Sample Public Release for Free and Reduced Price Meals A. The State Agency agrees to: Submit the informational public release containing the same information outlined in the Letter to Parents, to local unemployment offices, major employers contemplating large layoffs, and minority and grass root organizations. B. The LEA (including Residential Child Care Institutions (RCCIs) with day treatment programs) agrees to: 1. Submit to MDE any alterations to the Frequently Asked Questions About Free and Reduced Price School Meals, Family Application for Free and Reduced Price School Meals, Family Application for Free Milk, etc., prior to implementation. Such changes will be effective only upon approval. All Page 1 of 4 07/15 changes in eligibility criteria must be publicly announced in the same manner used at the beginning of the school year. 2. Develop and send to each child's parent or guardian a letter, as outlined herein, including an application form for free or reduced price school meals or free milk at the beginning of each school year and whenever there is a change in eligibility criteria. Only the reduced priced guidelines may be included in the School Meals Program Letter to Parents. The free scale is used for Special Milk Program Letter to Parents only. Parents will be requested to complete the application and return it to the Eligibility Determination Official for review. Such applications and documentation of action taken will be maintained for three years after the end of the fiscal year to which they pertain. 3. Designate an Eligibility Determination Official to review applications and make the determination of eligibility. This official will use the criteria outlined in this policy to determine which individual children are eligible for free and reduced price meals and/or free milk. 4. Access the Direct Certification Report as required by 7CFR Part 245, a minimum of three times during the school year; at or around the beginning of the school year, three months after the initial effort, and six months after the initial effort. MDE encourages LEAs to access the direct certification report updated monthly by the Center for Educational Performance and Information (CEPI). Update eligibility and benefits based on the direct certification report. When a student's name is on the direct certification report, no further application is necessary and the benefit will be extended to the rest of the students in the household. Foster children on the direct certification report are automatically eligible for free meals. This eligibility is not extended to other students in the household. However, the household may include the foster child on the application to increase household size and increase the likelihood of receiving benefits for the other students in the household, If a household has foster children living with them and wishes to apply for free and reduced price school meals and/or free milk for the other children in the household, they must provide the information requested on the application. Applications may be filed at any time during the year. Any parent enrolling a child in a school for the first time, at any time during the year, shall be supplied with such documents. If a child transfers from one school to another under the jurisdiction of the same school food authority, his/her eligibility for free meals or reduced price meals will be transferred to and honored by the receiving school. All children from a family will receive the benefits they qualify for. Within ten working days of the receipt of the applications, the eligibility determination must be made. Parents or guardians will be notified individually of the acceptance or denial of their applications. Children will be served free and reduced price school meals and/or free milk immediately upon the establishment of their eligibility. When an application is rejected, parents or guardians will be informed in writing of the reason for denial and of the fair hearing procedure. 5. Establish and use a fair hearing procedure for parents' appeals of the school's decisions on applications and for school officials' challenges to the correctness of information contained in an application or to the continued eligibility of any child for free and reduced price meals and/or free milk. During the appeal and hearing, the child will continue to receive free and reduced price meals and/or free milk. A record of all such appeals and challenges and their dispositions shall be retained for three years. Prior to initiating the hearing procedure, the parent or local school official may request a conference to provide an opportunity for the parent and school official to discuss the situation, Page 2 of 4 07/15 Resolution #15277 November 12, 2015 Moved by Spisz supported by Quarles the resolutions (with fiscal notes attached) on the Consent Agenda be adopted (with accompanying reports being accepted).

In order to release the names for any other purpose such as research, grant applications, etc., the parent or guardian must sign a Sharing Information with Other Programs statement. Such Sharing Information with Other Programs must be maintained on file in the food service office. Parents must be informed that failure to grant the Sharing Information with Other Programs does not change their child's eligibility to receive free or reduced price meals or free milk. 12.
