Pandemic EBT (P-EBT) provides funds to purchase food for children. These benefits will be on an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card which is used like a debit card to buy groceries.
BENEFITS WILL BE ISSUED FOR ALL ENROLLED NV STUDENTS!
* Because we are operating a Community Eligibility Program (CEP) this school year ALL enrolled students qualify for the P-EBT benefits. This includes graduating seniors and fully enrolled preschool students.
*SUMMER P-EBT benefits will be added to your current P-EBT card. IF your student is a first time P-EBT benefit recipient, cards will be mailed to the mailing address on file with Nooksack Valley School District.
* EBT cards are issued one per qualifying student: Each student will receive a P-EBT card in their name.
* P-EBT benefit amount is $120 for each Enrolled NV student
Families who don't want to use the benefits, can destroy their P-EBT: Benefits are not meant to be donated or shared.
*Have you have misplaced your previously issued P-EBT card? Contact the P-EBT CALL CENTER to request a new one be sent.
