DVUSD Free & Reduced Meal Applications Now Open for 2022-23- Complete the Application Online Today!

that free and reduced meal applications are now available online. Please note two important changes from the past two years, the USDA: 1) Will no longer provide funding for free meals for all students and, 2) Is offering a one-time Summer P-EBT payment only to students who were both certified to receive free or reduced meals and were enrolled in a DVUSD school offering a NSLP program during May 2022.  Please consider submitting a meal application now before the “back to school rush” begins and to best assure seamless meal support.
