Upcoming Workshops for Families!
Free and Reduced Lunch Information
Free and reduced meal applications are now available at www.schoolcafe.com/pisd. Student eligibility status from the 2019-2020 school year will roll over only for the first 30 operating days of school or until a new application has been processed. It is important that households complete an application for the 2020-2021 school year as soon as possible. We encourage households to fill out an application online, however, if a household requests a paper application, we have them available for campuses to print out here. Student eligibility status from last school year expired on September 24, 2020, for households that did not reapply for meal benefits for the current school year. Even though we are currently able to provide free meals to all students, we are strongly encouraging households to complete applications now so when USDA funds run out, which can occur at any time, students, if eligible, can continue to receive meals at a free or reduced price. If the parent/guardian completes the application home, they will need to drop off or mail the completed application to Meal Application Processor; 6600 Alma Drive Suite B, Plano, TX 75023. Households should allow 10 business days for application processing.
Our Project Search Interns have been hard at work! They began at Legacy Hall on Tuesday and have been completing their department interviews, orientation, and health and safety training. Setting up for upcoming events has also been a big focus for them this week! We are grateful to be starting this partnership with Legacy Hall and can't wait to see what the future holds this year!
From the Desk of Nurse Janet
Nurse Janet has been very impressed with how well everyone is doing wearing their masks and face shields! Practicing at home has certainly paid off. Thank you families for helping us to keep everyone healthy!
We are looking for amazing Plano community members and businesses to partner with!
