Big Rapids Public Schools participates in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP), providing free breakfast and lunch to every student. We encourage all students to take advantage of these healthy meals each day.
If you have already been approved for Education Benefits by the State of Michigan and received a confirmation letter from our Food Service Department, no further action is needed.
If you have not yet been approved but believe you may qualify, please complete an Education Benefits Form, available at your school's office or by clicking on the link below.
Completing this confidential form helps secure important state and federal funding for our schools, supporting educational programs, technology, and student services. It may also qualify your family for additional benefits, including food assistance, help with school fees or supplies, field trip support, and potential discounts on internet or cable services. Only one confidential form per family is required.
Students who require meal accommodations should also complete a Special Dietary Statement.
Big Rapids Public Schools Food Service is committed to serving healthy, well-balanced meals that meet federal nutrition guidelines.
