4. Complete each question and click Submit my application button.

NOTE: You can check the status of the application and even print out the approval/denial letter.

 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

• If a household meets the Oregon Expanded Income Guidelines (OR EIG), the application status will show 'Denied' via SchoolCafe. This is because the system can only show the Federal approval/denial status. An OR EIG approval letter will be mailed within 10 business days.
• If a household is Directly Certified, the application status will show 'Deleted'. A meal application is not needed and cannot be processed, so it is deleted from the system. A 2022-23 Direct Certification letter is sent via mail to the adult who qualified for the benefit (for example, the SNAP recipient). To receive a copy of the letter, contact the PPS Meal Benefits Office.
• If all students in a household attend a Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) school, the application status will show 'Deleted'. A meal application is not needed and cannot be processed, so it is deleted from the system. To request a letter stating a student in the household attends a CEP school and receives meals at no cost, please contact the PPS Meal Benefits Office. This letter can be used to receive other benefits, like low-cost internet.

Today was disappointing – for us but, most importantly, for our students and families. The Portland Association of Teachers offered no counter proposals – and yet declared impasse.

Today, we offered compromises that would both reward our educators and further our students’ success. We were able to raise our compensation offer substantially. We are not there yet, but we are committed to the hard work of finding common ground.

Today, we started the state-led mediation process with one priority: our children’s success. We offered compromises that would keep that vision at the heart of our work – and maintained our position on proposals that would negatively impact students.

On behalf of the Board of Education and district leaders at PPS, our best wishes for a positive and joyful start to your school year!
