The Julesburg Early Education Center Preschool received some extremely exciting news this week.

Pandemic EBT (P-EBT) is still available in Colorado!
Pandemic EBT, or P-EBT, provides families with children eligible for free or reduced-price school meals and attend a school participating in the National School Lunch Program with funds to help purchase food. This benefit is being distributed because students missed essential meals while schools were closed due to the pandemic this spring. Families can receive up to $279 per eligible child to supplement their food budget, regardless of immigration status.
Households that were receiving SNAP during the months of March, April, and May may not need to take any action; their P-EBT benefits may have automatically been loaded onto the EBT card they already have. Families with eligible children who did not receive SNAP during those months or who did not receive the automatic payment need to apply online to receive this benefit. The deadline to apply is September 23rd. Visit coloradopeak.force.com/PEBT to learn more and apply for P-EBT today! Please contact your child's school if you need another copy of your child's state student ID.
As we are in week two of school, this is such a great reminder to teachers and parents that kids are human, too! Kids need down time, rest, and extra sleep. And sometimes they are just grumpy and that's ok! We ALL have those days!
