Free/Reduced Meals

Free and Reduced Meals Application

Families who believe they qualify for the Free/Reduced Meal program will need to fill out our online application for approval. Our online application is the fastest way to qualify for the Free/Reduced Meal program. Families have to fill out an application every school year for their student(s) to receive benefits.


Click Here to Fill Out Our Online Application for the Free/Reduced Meal Program


If you would prefer to fill out a paper application, please return a completed form to Kelsey Warren at Springboro High School (SHS) - 1675 S Main Street, Springboro, OH 45066.


If you are currently approved for the Free/Reduced Meal Program, you would have thirty (30) school days to submit a new application before your benefits expire from last school year.

Sharing of Information/Fee Waivers

When you fill out a Free and Reduced Meal Application it is important you give the district permission to share your student's free/reduced status with certain programs if you wish to receive the benefit(s). You will not receive the benefits unless you agreed to share information and the parent/guardian signs off on this on the Free And Reduced Meals Application. 


**IF you are directly certified through the state and do not have to fill out a free and reduced meal application you will need to fill out a Sharing of Information Form and return it to the schools office, email it to Kelsey Warren or mail it to 1685 S. Main, Street, Springboro, OH 45066 before your information will be shared with these programs and before your fees will be waived.

Summer-EBT

The last few summers the state has offered P-EBT (pandemic-EBT). Starting this summer the state is participating in Summer-EBT (S-EBT). Parents/Guardians of students who qualify for Free or Reduced price meals through school will be awarded one issuance for the whole summer in the amount of $120, $40 for each month of the summer PER CHILD. They will begin processing payments in mid-June and everyone will have their benefits by July 31st.
