S-EBT Cards Information
The California Department of Social Services (CDSS) and the California Department of Education’s Summer EBT (S-EBT) 2024 Plan of Operations and Management (POM) has officially been approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service (FNS). This approved plan outlines California鈥檚 strategies for ensuring an estimated 5.2 million children across our state will receive critical food benefits this summer.
Eligibility for 2024 S-EBT benefits will automatically be determined by the CDSS using data from the California Statewide Automated Welfare System (CalSAWs) and free and reduced-price meal (FRPM) eligibility records in the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS). Children determined eligible for S-EBT benefits through CALPADS must be directly certified, or FRPM eligible through a National School Lunch Program meal application or alternative income form. For summer 2024, no separate S-EBT application is required. S-EBT benefits will continue to be administered through August 31, 2024, so SFAs are encouraged to continue making eligibility determinations and routinely updating CALPADS through this date.
The tentative benefit issuance timeline is as follows:
- Phase 1鈥擯ublic school students determined eligible through CALPADS or public assistance programs on or before March 29, 2024, and private school children determined eligible as of April 16, 2024. Households will begin receiving benefits mid-June through August 31, 2024.
- Phase 2鈥掷迟耻诲别苍迟蝉听newly聽identified as eligible from March 30, 2024, through August 31, 2024. Households will receive benefits September through November 2024.

Message to Families
Dear Parents and Caregivers,
Welcome back to another school year. We have continued to make positive changes to the school meals and want to encourage you and your children to participate in the school breakfast and lunch programs this year.
Since 2007, all of our schools serve Universal Breakfast and have a Fresh Buffet Style Service approach to lunch. Universal Breakfast means all of our schools are serving free breakfast for all students.
The 911爆料 Nutrition Services team
A year-long calendar has been posted to our website so you know what we are serving every day. The calendar lists the elementary and middle and high school鈥檚 breakfast and lunch menus for the entire year. Additionally, each month of the calendar includes recipes.聽 We hope you will try cooking these at home with your family. The links above link to the calendars.
The changes we are making are part of a district-wide effort called the School Lunch Initiative (SLI). SLI has two primary goals: to serve more nutritious and delicious, freshly-prepared meals using locally-grown food to all of our students and to educate children in kitchen, garden and academic classrooms about their food choices and the impact those choices have on their health, the community and the environment.
We are extremely proud of the accomplishments we are making, including the following:
- Salad bars in all of our schools
- Hormone and antibiotic-free milk
- Fresh fruit and vegetables served daily
- Almost all of our food made from scratch
- All bread and dinner rolls are organic
- All other rolls are whole-grain
- Swipe card systems in almost all of our schools
- Vegetarian options daily
A majority of our food is now purchased locally:
- Breakfast muffins
- Whole-grain pizza crust
- Sliced bread and dinner rolls
- 100% of our produce from the US; 50% from California
- Organic salad bars at 911爆料 High School, middle and elementary schools
- All hamburgers and hot dogs are natural and grass-fed
We hope you will join us in helping your children make healthy food choices in school and at home. Together we can help raise a new generation of healthier and better educated young people. Thank you for your continued support and please don鈥檛 hesitate to call or email if there鈥檚 anything I can do to help.
