The cost of providing meals will be reimbursed by the federal government
In the 2024-25 school year, Glenwood Heights Primary in Battle Ground Public Schools will serve breakfast and lunch at no cost to all enrolled students. This is made possible through the Community Eligibility Provision, a meal service option for schools and school districts in areas with lower incomes. The cost of providing meals will be reimbursed by the federal government. However, families who meet the criteria should fill out a Child Nutrition Eligibility & Education Benefit application.
In addition, all students at the following Battle Ground schools can also eat breakfast and lunch at school during the 2024-25 year at no cost to their families:
- CAM Academy
- Captain Strong Primary School
- Daybreak Primary School
- Maple Grove Primary School
- Pleasant Valley Primary School
- Tukes Valley Primary School
- Yacolt Primary School
These schools were identified for funding to cover the cost of meals based on the number of free, reduced-price and full-price meals served. Learn more.
Even though there is no cost to families at these schools, those who meet the criteria should still fill out a Child Nutrition Eligibility & Education Benefit application. Families at all other Battle Ground schools also are welcome to apply if they think that they may qualify for free or reduced-price meals. Completing both sides of the application or a consent to share form may also qualify families at all schools for summer EBT benefits, help secure other educational funding for Battle Ground Public Schools and reduce fees for certain programs and activities.
