KNOX CITY—The Knox City/O’Brien Consolidated Independent School District will continue to operate the Community Eligibility Program (CEP) under the National School Breakfast and Lunch plan for the 2020-2021 school year, said Tammy Steward, the district’s child nutrition director.
Qualifying schools are allowed to serve students free meals under the program and eliminate the collection of applications.
“This new approach reduces the burdens for both families and school administrators and helps ensure students receive nutritious meals,” Steward said.
