Because of the rain from Hurricane Irene and continuous flooding throughout our state, many families with school-aged children have lost their homes, are displaced, are living in temporary shelters, and/or are experiencing changes in their households.
Children from these homes may be counted as homeless under the McKinney-Vento Act and therefore automatically eligible for free school meals.
Find the policy memo on the "Memos" page of the NOEP-only section of the website.
In addition, check out the template outreach material to inform families.
