New Buffalo Area Schools encourages all families to complete the Summer EBT and Education Benefits Application.
The Summer EBT Application determines eligibility of a student or household. The total count of eligible students in the district is used to determine the funding amounts that will be made available to a school.
Without this information, our district could lose important state funding for educational programs that our students are entitled to. The information collected from the application is used to provide additional services and benefits beyond just school meals, like resources for classrooms, teachers, and children, guidance and college counselors, and health and wellness services.
Before starting the application, please review the following:
If you received a notice in August 2023, that states your child(ren) has already been approved, DO NOT complete another application
One application per family is all we need; even if your children are in different grade levels throughout the New Buffalo Area School District
Complete the Summer EBT and Education Benefits Application at FAMILY PORTAL
If you have questions or need help, please call 269-469-6048 or email piazzetto@nbas.org .
