Nutrition Program Updates: Week of October 8, 2018 | School Nutrition Program
Verification
Reminder
Schools that participate in
School Nutrition Programs are required to verify a percentage of the approved
Applications for Educational Benefits each school year and report verification
results annually to the Minnesota Department of Education. The annual
process for verifying Applications for Educational Benefits should now be
underway. Schools should determine
the number of applications to verify and identify the actual applications. For School Food Authorities (SFAs) required to use the Standard 3%
Error-Prone Sampling Method, a detailed email was sent on July 26, 2018 that included
resources specific to that sampling method. Those same resources can be found
on our Verification
website along with many others to help guide you
through the process. In addition, several Tuesday @ 2 webinars provide helpful information on each part of the process.
Access further information and registration for Tuesdays @ 2 webinars.
