Beginning in 2024, New York State will launch Summer EBT, a new program that provides low-income families with food benefits to help buy groceries during the summer when kids might not have access to school meals. All students enrolled in Copiague Public Schools are eligible children and will receive Summer EBT food benefits automatically. Each eligible child will receive $120 in Summer EBT food benefits in 2024.
Summer EBT benefits can be used just like SNAP benefits to buy food at grocery stores, farmers markets, and other SNAP-authorized retailers. Summer EBT food benefits will remain available and accessible on your Summer EBT food benefits card for 122 days after the date they were issued. All unused benefits are removed from the card after this time. Be sure to use your benefits soon after you receive them.

Free Summer Meal Programs
Breakfast will be available for students in kindergarten through grade 12 who wish to participate.
Federal regulations require schools and institutions to serve meals at no extra charge to those children whose disability restricts their diets in such a way that they cannot fully participate in the food service program without some modification to the foods offered on the scheduled menu. You must request the special meals from the school and provide the school with medical certification from a medical doctor. Contact the Director of Food Services, at 842-4010, extension 450.
