CNP Files
CNP Collection of Race and Ethnicity Data
-
The Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) require all School Meal Program sponsors to collect race and ethnicity data of applicants and participants. The purpose of this data collection effort is to determine how effectively School Meal Programs are reaching potentially eligible students. Responses have no effect on eligibility.
To meet this requirement, School Meal Program sponsors must notify applicants and participants that (1) the purpose for collecting race and ethnicity data is to determine how effectively School Meal Programs are reaching potentially eligible students, (2) provision of this data is voluntary, (3) responses are kept confidential, and (4) responses have no effect on eligibility. Notifications must be posted on local School Food Authority or school websites no later than October 1, 2023, in a language and format that applicants and participants can understand.
Race and ethnicity data of students is collected on school registration forms. School registration can be completed online or on paper. If needed, internet access and computers are available at all school locations during regular school hours. If an after-school appointment is needed, call the school office to schedule. Student chrome books may also be used to complete online school registration. If you have questions, please call 256-845-9288.
