Monday is EARTH DAY!!!
It is also Surrey High School Clean Up Day!  All of our 9th-12th grade students will be scouring the city picking up trash, raking some leaves, and doing multiple jobs around the school grounds.  The students will need to submit what meal they would like that day.  They can scan the QR code Mrs. Gerding handed out to them and let us know if they would like to order pizza or a sack lunch.  The sack lunch will consist of a 3' sub sandwich, chips, cookie and drink and will be charged to your child's lunch account.  If ordering pizza your child must have their cash payment in an envelope turned into Mrs. Gerding by the end of the day Thursday, April 18th.

North Dakota Summer EBT (SEBT)
In summer 2024, North Dakota will launch Summer EBT (SEBT) a new grocery benefits program that provides families $120 for each eligible school-aged child to buy groceries when school is out. Summer is a time when many children lose the free and reduced-price meals they get at school and when households might need a little extra help putting meals on the table. Most families will get these benefits automatically, but some parents will need to apply. The new program is in addition to free meals that kids of all ages can get at summer meal sites in their communities.
 
On Monday, April 15, 2024, parents, or guardians of eligible students will start receiving emails that provide information about the student's eligibility, how to update address information, or how to opt out of the program if they choose.  We were not able to get email addresses for every eligible student.  Parents or guardians may contact our office if they don’t get an email and want to know if they will receive benefits and/or update their address information.     
 
SEBT special email address:  NDSEBT@nd.gov
SEBT Web Site for Parents:  NDSummerEBT.nd.gov
__________________________________
Eligibility:
Children are eligible for the program if:
the household already participates in SNAP, FDPIR, or TANF, OR
the child attends a school that offers the National School Lunch or School Breakfast Program, and the household income meets the federal requirements for free or reduced-price school meals.
Enrollment:
NDDPI will use student information that is collected from districts to determine student eligibility and to issue benefits.  However, LEAs that don’t report student enrollment information to NDDPI will be asked to provide a spreadsheet with data needed to provide SEBT benefits to their eligible students. 
Many families will get Summer EBT automatically if they are getting other benefits, but some families may need to apply.
If the household already participates in SNAP, FDPIR, or TANF, they will be automatically enrolled in the Summer EBT program. Households do not need to fill out an application.
If the household is not automatically enrolled and may be eligible, they can apply for Summer EBT by filling out a simple application.
How Summer EBT Works:
The benefits will be provided on a separate EBT card for each eligible student and can be used to buy groceries. Families will receive $120 per eligible child for the summer. Benefits can be used at authorized retailers, like grocery stores and farmers markets, to purchase healthy foods like fruits, vegetables, meats and other protein sources, whole grains, and dairy.

Notification of Interactive Dashboard - North Dakota Insights

North Dakota has an accountability system reported through Insights (https://insights.nd.gov/), more commonly referred to as the “Dashboard”. The Dashboard contains reports that display the performance of school districts, schools, and student groups on a set of state and local measures to assist in identifying strengths, challenges, and areas in need of additional support.

 

North Dakota’s Insights (https://insights.nd.gov/) website is designed to help communities across the state access important information about K-12 districts and school – including ours. The North Dakota Insights Dashboard (https://insights.nd.gov/) features easy-to-read reports on multiple measures of school success, including test scores, graduation rates, English Learner progress and attendance. The Dashboard replaces the former School District Report Card and Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) reports.

 

Please note, data made available to the public masks or hides data for groups with fewer than 10 students to protect confidential information about individual students.

 

For questions concerning K-12 education data, please contact the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction. Phone: (701) 328-2260
