What is Pandemic EBT?
Pandemic EBT funds are coming for the 2020-2021 school year. P-EBT is a program to help you purchase food for your school-age child(ren) who were eligible for free or reduced price school meals through the National School Lunch Program (NSLP), but whose schools closed or operated with reduced attendance or hours for five consecutive days due to COVID-19. P-EBT for eligible families will be added to your Families First Card or mailed to you starting at the end of July. Need more information? Visit the P-EBT section of www.NJSNAP.gov.

If I have a mySchoolBucks account in another school district, can I use the same mySchoolBucks account for my child entering Kingsway Regional School District?
No, a new mySchoolBucks account will need to be set up and you will need to choose Kingsway Regional when it is asked to choose a school district. If you still have money on the other mySchoolBucks account, you will need to request a refund from that school district and close the account. Money cannot be transferred over to Kingsway.
-
How do I apply for free/reduced meals for my child?
An application will be sent home by mail or in your child's backpack. You may also retrieve the application from the school website under the food service tab.
-
My child received free/reduced meals last year. Do I have to submit another application for this school year?
Yes, in order for your child to qualify for free/reduced meals, an application needs to be completed and signed every school year. If we do not receive an application for your child by the deadline date, your child's lunch status will change to full pay and you will be responsible for the cost of the meals.
-
The income status has changed in the household. Can I fill out a meal application anytime?
Yes, anytime there is a change in income, you may fill out an application. Once the application has been determined that your child will be receiving free or reduced-price meals, the benefit remains for the whole school year.
-
How can I deposit money in my child's account?
We accept cash or checks (made out to Kingsway Cafeteria) at any register. You also have the option to make payments online at www.myschoolbucks.com.
