The information provided on the application is con?dential and will be used only for the purpose of
determining eligibility and may be veri?ed at any time during the school year by school or other program
of?cial. To discourage the possibility of misrepresentation, the application forms contain a statement above
the space for signature certifying that all information furnished is true and correct. Applications are being
made in connection with the receipt of federal funds. Schools or other of?cials may check the information on
the application at any time during the school year. Deliberate misrepresentation of information may subject
the applicant to prosecution under applicable state and federal laws. Households will be noti?ed of the
approval or denial of bene?ts. Foster children are categorically eligible for free meal bene?ts regardless of
the household’s income. If a family has foster children living with them and wishes to apply for such meals
or milk for them, contact the school for more information.

Under the provision of the policy, Jody White, Food Service Supervisor, will review applications and
determine eligibility. If a parent or guardian disagrees with the decision on the application or the result of
veri?cation, the decision may be discussed with the determining of?cial on an informal basis. If a formal
appeal is desired, the household has the right to a fair hearing. A fair hearing can be requested either orally or
in writing from: Franco Gallo, Superintendent 531 Opportunity Way, LaGrange, Oh, 44050, 440-355-2424.
The policy contains an outline of the hearing procedure.

Households may apply for bene?ts any time during the school year. If a household is not currently
eligible and if the household size increases or income decreases because of unemployment or other reasons,
the family should contact the school to ?le a new application. Such changes may make the children of the
family eligible for free or reduced-price bene?ts if the family income falls at or below the levels shown
above.
