Recently your student may have received a P-EBT card. This may have seemed random and very confusing to you as a parent. The following information has been provided from various agencies explaining the program.
“On June 25, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) announced Oklahoma’s approval to operate a Pandemic Electronic Benefits Transfer (P-EBT) program through funding provided under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act. P-EBT provides extra food benefits for families with school-aged children who would have received free or reduced-priced school meals through the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and who meet certain eligibility criteria. Oklahoma Human Services (OKDHS) and the Oklahoma State Department of Education (OSDE) worked together to create a state plan ensuring that every eligible household across the state could access benefits without needing to complete an application. Through a collaborative data-sharing agreement, current SNAP households identified by OKDHS, as well as non-SNAP households which include children eligible for free and reduced-price school meals identified by OSDE, will automatically receive P-EBT benefits.”
Heavener Public Schools is a Community Eligible Program school and every student qualifies for free meals. Due to this program each Heavener Public School student should receive a P-EBT card with up to $250 credit for food benefits from the state, not the school. The community Eligible Program is/and continues to be a vital program for our community, your support in filling out the applications each year is important for this program, thank you for your cooperation and support.
