SFSP/SSO Exemption Request

Information

Summer Program Requirements

Schools in a public school district offering summer programs of academic, enrichment, or remedial services where 50% or more of the children enrolled in the school qualify for free or reduced-price lunch must operate a summer meal program that is open to the community (RCW 28A.235.160). Local Education Agencies (LEAs) should operate the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) or NSLP's Seamless Summer Option (SSO) at summer school sites and offer meals to all children in the community.

Exemptions to this rule are provided by OSPI on a case-by-case basis and must be approved in advance. Please note that all LEAs must promote the availability of the USDA summer meal programs, regardless of their operation. Resources are available on the SFSP and SSO webpages.
