The Annual Welcome Back Breakfast for New Haven Community Schools was held on August 27, 2024, at the welcoming Endeavor Middle School. This much-anticipated event, beautifully catered by SFE, featured a delightful All-American Breakfast that brought the community together in a warm and inviting atmosphere. Educators, staff, and community members shared a morning filled with connection, camaraderie, and the joy of starting a new school year on a positive note. The highlight of the event was an inspiring keynote address by renowned educator and author Chase Mielke, who captivated the audience with his insights and enthusiasm, leaving everyone motivated and ready for the exciting year ahead.

Please make note of the following information:

For the 2024-25 school year, all meals are provided at no cost; however, additional education benefits are extended to the district, individual school buildings, or households, contingent upon the determination of an individual student benefit (free, reduced, paid) on an annual basis.

We request that each family complete and submit either the School Meal Application or the Education Benefits Form (previously known as the Household Information Report). The information collected serves to facilitate access to supplementary services and benefits beyond provision of meals to include resources for classrooms, educators, and students, guidance and college counselors, as well as health and wellness services. Summer EBT benefits are also accessible to eligible households. To ascertain the specific form required, we encourage you to communicate with your respective school.

We urge you to work with your school's administration promptly regarding the submission of school meal forms.
