Update: SY20-21 Income Guidelines Correction

The USDA Child Nutrition Program Income Guidelines for school year 2020-21 and Letter to Households posted on the NSLP Free and Reduced-Price webpage, were posted with a transcription error.

The annual income guideline for reduced-price meals for a household size of 8, incorrectly lists $81,662.00. The correct annual income guideline for reduced-price meals for a household size of 8, should list $81,622.00. We have updated the SY 20-21 Income Guidelines and Letter to Households with the correct information and re-posted to our website in both English and Spanish.

Letter to Households Templates Updated:

Public School Districts
Private Schools & Residential Child Care Institutions
Non-Pricing Programs and Provision 2 Programs operating a base year

Program sponsors should review all free and reduced-price eligibility materials including on-line meal applications to ensure they have the correct income guidelines.

We apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused.

For more information and resources to assist in processing meal applications, please visit the OSPI-CNS Free & Reduced Price Meal Applications webpage.
