Presidents Day

A Little History

Presidents Day is an American holiday celebrated on the third Monday in February; Presidents Day 2019 occurs on Monday, February 18. Originally established in 1885 in recognition of President George Washington, the holiday became popularly known as Presidents Day after it was moved as part of 1971’s Uniform Monday Holiday Act, an attempt to create more three-day weekends for the nation’s workers. While several states still have individual holidays honoring the birthdays of Washington, Abraham Lincoln and other figures, Presidents Day is now popularly viewed as a day to celebrate all U.S. presidents, past and present.

CEP

The South Conway County School District is excited to announce that the district will again be providing breakfast and lunch at NO CHARGE for ALL students during the 2018-2019 school year!

The South Conway County School District (SCCSD) is pleased to announce the district will participate in the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) during the 2018 - 2019 school year providing meals, regardless of eligibility category, at NO CHARGE for all students at all of our schools participating in the National School Lunch Program or School Breakfast Program (this includes all schools in the SCCSD). CEP was authorized by Congress as a part of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010. This is made possible through the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Special Assistance Certification and Reimbursement Community Eligibility Provision. Federal reimbursement for meals is based on the Identified Student Percentage (ISP) established by the District. The information used to establish the ISP will be made available only to State and Federal officials for review. All adults, e.g., visitors, teachers, support staff members, and administrators of the district must assume the full cost of the meal which is $2.00 for Breakfast and $3.50 for Lunch.

This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
