Additionally, parents of students who attend Carnegie
Elementary are not required to complete an application.
The school qualifies for the Community Eligibility Provision.
Nevertheless, parents are asked to list the names of students
who attend Carnegie Elementary on applications.
Information about the NSLP will be sent home with students
on the first day of school. If you do not receive an application,
please contact Michelle Weaver (NSLP Facilitator) at 412-429-
2500 (ext. 1103) or e-mail [email protected]
to have an application sent to you.
Parents can also apply for the NSLP online via COMPASS
(Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Access to Social Services) at
www.compass.state.pa.us. Parents applying for the NSLP through
COMPASS, do not have to submit a paper application.
The Carlynton School District uses a computerized Point of
Service (POS) system in our cafeterias. With this system, students
have 100% anonymity as to the type of payment program used
when purchasing school meals.
If a child is not eligible now, but there is a decrease in
household income, a parent becomes unemployed, there is
an increase in household size, or a family begins to receive
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) or Temporary
Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), you may reapply for
benefits at anytime during the school year.
The Carlynton School District is an equal opportunity provider.
