School Based Assistance
This is a program provided through the school in partnership with Samaritan Community Center. If your family is food insecure and your child needs additional food for weekends, please contact the school counselor for information about this program.
Homeless/McKinney-Vento Liaison
The McKinney-Vento Act is a federal law that qualifies students who meet certain criteria as homeless and allows for certain supports for the student, including free lunches and assistance for transportation to and from school if the student lives outside the school district. Students whose family is living with another family, whose family lives in a motel, or who otherwise do not have fixed and stable housing may qualify. Contact Dena McKnight for more information.
