Abington Public Schools is participating in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) of the National School Lunch Program. This special provision means that families are no longer required to complete a meal benefit application, and all our students have access to breakfast and lunch at no cost. With the implementation of the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) for the 2025-2026 school year, fee waivers for transportation, athletics, and other applicable areas will be based on Direct Certification. Direct Certification is the process by which school districts certify students who are members of households receiving assistance from SNAP, TANF/TAFDC, or FDPIR, as eligible for free meals without further application. Direct Certification is based on information provided by the state agencies administering these benefit programs.
To apply for Direct Certification, please visit: https://dtaconnect.eohhs.mass.gov/ and apply for benefits. All families who are Direct Certified will be sent a Community Eligibility (CEP) information sharing form. If you do not qualify for the Direct Certification benefit and are experiencing financial hardship, please complete the district's hardship application to be considered for assistance with district fees. This form can be found at: https://tinyurl.com/yjmby6uf
