Community Eligibility
-
During the 2024-25 school year, the district is participating in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP). All students enrolled in an Omaha Public School where meals are provided will receive a healthy breakfast and lunch at no charge, regardless of income. No further action is required. By providing breakfast and lunch at no charge, we will be contributing to the education environment for the students. Families may fill out an Educational Benefits Form to be eligible to additional benefits previously provided to families who qualified for free and reduced meals.
