Free & Reduced Meals
By completing a CNEEB application, households may qualify for:
- Free and Reduced-Price Meals,
- Reduced fees for other programs and activities, and/or
- Summer EBT benefits.
You may be eligible for reduced school fees if you qualify for Free or Reduced Meals. To be considered, select "consent to share" information when completing the MealTime (CNEEB) application. *Or complete and return the Consent to Share form below to your child's school, or email it to [email protected].
- Each year, a new application is required to see if your household qualifies for free or reduced-price meal benefits.
- You may apply at any time during the school year.
- *If your child attends a CEP school (see note below), you should still complete the application to ensure you receive all benefits.
- *If you directly qualify for Free or Reduced Meal (SNAP/Medicaid), by completing the Consent to Share Form, you may be eligible for reduced student fees.
Be sure to complete the MealTime application every year and select or complete the Consent to Share form.

- Most eligible students are automatically enrolled in SUN Bucks. Look for your approval letter and new SUN Bucks card in the mail in June.
- Need to update your address? Contact the SUN Bucks Call Center at 833-543-3230 or TTY 800-833-6384.
- Get additional benefits by using your SUN Bucks card at farmers markets and grocery stores that participate in SNAP Market Match and SNAP Produce Match.
- If you did not receive a SUN Bucks card, you can still apply during the summer at sunbucks.dshs.wa.gov.sunbucks.dshs.wa.gov.
NOTE: If your child goes to any of these 16 schools, please see our Community Eligibility Provision page for information on free meals for the entire school, regardless of income. Be sure to complete the CNEEB application anyway and consider the Consent the Share form as you may qualify for reduced fees too.
