Why should I complete the Free & Reduced-Price Meal Application?

Completing the application takes just a few minutes and can make a big difference for our school and our students. If your family qualifies, your child may receive free or reduced-price meals. Even if your child brings lunch from home, your application helps our school receive important funding for teachers, academic programs, technology, and student support services. All information is kept confidential. We encourage every family to complete an application each school year.

The Concept Young Scholars Program (CYSP) is an academic and personal development initiative that supports students through a structured journey toward academic success, strong character, and college readiness. The program emphasizes personal growth, community service, physical fitness, and educational experiences. CYSP seeks to develop self-motivated learners who take ownership of their education, communicate effectively, and contribute meaningfully to their communities.
