The screening dates will be August 17, 18 and 21. A parent/guardian and the child will attend this brief screening appointment only on one of the three days. If you have not received your letter, feel free to call the office to inquire about your screening time.

After screenings are complete, kindergarten students will attend ONE of three phase-in days, which allow staff and students to become acquainted in a small group setting. The phase in days will be August 22, 23 and 24.

Free & Reduced Meal Application

WHY fill out a Free & Reduced application?
The Newark City Schools Food Service Department participates in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and applications are a requirement to be part of the program. A submitted, approved application could qualify your child for Free or Reduced status and the following:

  1. When an application is submitted and approved for Free meals, the School Instructional Fees are waived at the end of the school year*
  2. All applications help Newark schools with Title I funding
  3.  All applications help Newark schools with Technology funding
  4. P-EBT: These funds which are provided from the NSLP are only sent to those students who qualify for Free or Reduced meals. School eligibility guidelines have varied the past school year. We are unsure at this time if P-EBT will be issued and or what conditions must be met.
