FREE AND REDUCED LUNCH BACKGROUND: • For public schools and districts, beginning in the 2013‐ 14 school year, Free and Reduced Price Lunch (FRPL) eligible student counts are calculated from the Student Information Repository System (SIRS). • For 2013‐ 14, Charter school FRPL eligible student counts must still be reported through the Basic Education Data System (BEDS) Online reporting system. • To be included in the enrollment counts considered when determining the FRPL eligible count, the student must be included in the SIRS‐ 313 BEDS Day Enrollment Verification Report by Location of Enrollment & Student Subgroup. • The report excludes: Pre‐Kindergarten students from the FRPL Total Eligible counts, these counts also do not include preschool (PS) students, AHSEP enrolled students (GD), homebound students, home‐schooled students. • FRPL eligible students must have one of the following Program Service codes reported in SIRS with a beginning date on or before BEDS day and an ending date on or after BEDS Day (or has no ending date): • 5817 (Free Lunch Program) to be eligible for Free Lunch • 5806 (Reduced‐Price Lunch Program) to be eligible for Reduced Price Lunch • Carryover of previous year’s eligibility is for up to 30 operating days (whether meals are served or not) into the current school year or until a new eligibility determination has been made. If a new eligibility determination for the current school year has not been made by BEDS day and a student is within the 30‐day carryover period, the student should be reported as qualifying for either free or reduced‐price lunch. • The first snapshot of FRPL eligible counts for the 2014‐ 15 school year is January 9, when the total FRPL rate will be supplied to State Aid for use in preliminary aid projections. Keep in mind that the End of Year (August) snapshot replaces the January and March snapshot.

PART 4: STATE AID TIMELINE FOR REPORTING Enrollment Data: August through October (of claim year) Districts report estimated BEDS Day enrollments to State Aid via SAMS. The SAMS Form A base year (center column) is pre‐filled with actual BEDS Day enrollment as reported to SED in the prior year (for 2014‐ 15 SAMS, the Form A, base year ‐ center column enrollment will be pre‐filled with 2013‐ 14 BEDS Day enrollment). November through January Districts should continue to review and adjust the Form A estimated BEDS Day enrollment counts. The is necessary as State Aid uses this data to analyze and check the actual BEDS Day enrollment received from IRS offices. January 9 th SED’s Office of Information & Reporting Services (IRS) send the initial BEDS Day enrollment data file to State Aid for use in aid calculations and aid estimates. The data is first used in the February Legislative DB. Note: This initial enrollment data does not include Nonpublic DOA & DOR counts.
