Healthy School Meals for All

Posted July 27, 2023

Hallett Academy Families,

Due to the Health School Meals for All Program approved by Colorado votes this past school year, all students within DPS will now have access to free healthy school meals beginning in 2023-24. Although meals will be provided for free to all students, families still need to complete a form to ensure DPS gets full access to federal funding.

Some more information you can also find on our dpsk12.org website:

  • Please continue to fill out the You Benefit! form (formerly referred to as the Meals Application). We ask all DPS families to please complete the You Benefit! form during registration for the 2023-24 school year. By completing the form, you will help us access all available funds to cover the cost of meals, and other nutritional programs for students.
  • Families who fill out the You Benefit! form may qualify to receive discounted school fees, class materials, bus passes, utilities support and more!
  • All household income information provided through this form is strictly confidential and protected by law. Only one form is required for all children in the household. Immigration, migrant, citizenship or refugee status is not required when completing the form.

Learn more about the Healthy School Meals for All program in a short video in English and Spanish, this flier (Spanish is on page 2), or by visiting the Healthy School Meals for All website.

If you have questions about completing the You Benefit! form, please contact the DPS Food & Nutrition Services department by calling 720-423-5600 or emailing the foodservices@dpsk12.org inbox.
