In a statement sent by TPS, the USDA's Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) is extending the opportunity for elementary students for the next five years.
Families with children in secondary grades, says TPS, will still have to fill out the free and reduced meal applications in order to benefit. The applications must be submitted for secondary students at the start of the school year.
Online applications are available starting August 5, click here to find them after that date.
