Free and Reduced Price Policy Statement
Miami Public Schools National School Lunch and Severe Need Breakfast Programs are operating under Provision 2. This program provides free meals to all students regardless of free and reduced meal status. Provision 2 was initiated in August 2022 and will remain in effect for four years. At any time the district may return to standard procedures. The status of Provision 2 will be reconsidered for extension during the 2026-2027 school year. Miami Public Schools will collect socioeconomic data such as local data collected by the city or county, local SNAP certification data, population, employment rates, school enrollment, median household income, and additional data as required to apply for Provision
P-EBT Update
If a parent/guardian completes a free or reduced-price meal application in July or August 2022 and that meal application is approved for free or reduced-price meals, they will be eligible for Summer 2022 P-EBT benefits retroactively when pick-up files are sent to DHS in October. This will only apply to Summer 2022 benefits.
