Nutrition Services

Dear Parent or Guardian, 

Hacienda La Puente Nutrition Services will be serving BREAKFAST AND  SCHOOL LUNCH TO ALL STUDENTS FOR FREE for the school year 2024-2025 under the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) for the School Breakfast and National School Lunch Programs. Families will NOT need to complete meal benefit applications for 2024-2025.

However, we need your assistance in ensuring Hacienda La Puente Unified School District continues to offer outstanding programs in our schools. Please complete the 2024-2025 two-question Student Benefit Form in your child(ren)’s annual data confirmation in Aeries or fill up the Qualtrics Income Survey sent by your school administrator. Funding for public education is highly dependent on a school district's demographics. One factor is the socioeconomic status of families. It is very powerful in the calculation and can generate millions of dollars needed to support and grow the quality programs in your child's school. Families could qualify for other benefits too. See below.

• P-EBT is a federal food program 
• Discounted Advanced Placement Test fee 
• Fee waiver for SAT and ACT exams
