Project HATS
As
a school we have decided join with other schools in our district and adopt a
school that has been affected by the recent hurricane and subsequent flooding
in Texas, helping them out however we can. We are currently in the process of
being matched with a specific school and once we are in contact with them, we
will have a more detailed list of their specific needs. Until then, we are
going to start collecting donations of the following basic school supplies as
well as monetary donations that we can later use to purchase items more
specific to the needs of the school and students. There are a lot of schools
that have been impacted in devastating ways that will need help so we ask that
you help out however you can. Once we have collected donations, we will be
having the students help in a service capacity by organizing supplies and
writing notes of encouragement, love, and support to include in our shipment.
King Farm Trucking here in Tremonton will be sending a truck down to Texas with
donated items next Friday evening and Malt-O-Meal will be donating some cereal
to send as well. Please pass the word along and have anyone wishing to
donate contact the school for more information. Thank you for your help.

1. The School Nutrition Program is financed through federal and state funds as well as that amount of money that is charged to students and adults who participate in the program. It is intended to be self-sufficient without financial support from the general fund.
2. The purpose of this policy is to explain the following:
a. Process for notifying parents/guardians about money that is owed for student meals.
b. The procedures for providing meals if students’ accounts are delinquent.
c. The process to be used if notification of delinquent accounts is ignored.
B. Definitions
1. Alternate Meal
a. A meal served to a student that is different than the meals served to other students on that day because the student does not have adequate funds in the student’s lunch account.
2. Charged Meal
a. A student is allowed to eat the same meal as other students are served when there aren’t adequate funds in their account with the understanding that the parent/guardian will pay for the meals at a later time.
3. Delinquent Account
a. A student’s lunch account that does not have adequate funds to cover the meal charges by the student or parent and there has been no agreement between the parent and school officials to resolve the issue.
4. Parent
a. A student’s parent, legal guardian, or person acting as the parent for school purposes.
5. Designated Day
a. A day in the week that has been established by the individual school to notify parents that a student’s account has a negative balance.

Hard copies must be available for those who request that means of communication.
2. If the student’s family receives benefits from the Special Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), the Family Employment Program (FEP), or the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR), they are automatically eligible for meals at no charge and are to be notified of such as soon as the school/district receives appropriate notification.
3. Schools will notify a parent (and student when deemed appropriate) on the day designated by the school on a weekly basis if the student has a negative balance in his/her account. Communication can be by any means deemed suitable by the school.
4. Schools will notify a parent (and student when deemed appropriate) on the day designated by the school if the student’s account is behind an amount equal to $20.00.
