Financial Benefits for ISD 166
The application for Educational Benefits that your family fills out drives other income for the district far beyond Free and Reduced Meal status! Whether your student eats at school or not, the application is the basis for calculating other MN education aids. The district was able to get almost $220,000 in aid last year from this program alone.
Currently, we have received less than half of the applications from previous years. That could impact the district over $100,000 in next year's aid amount.
The deadline has been extended by the MN legislature until January 4th, 2021.
You can help impact school funding for next year! Please log into the parent portal and submit your application today! The paper form is at the link below!
