SUMMER EBT
The Summer Electronic Benefit (EBT) program helps families buy food while school is out during the summer and nutritious school meals may not be available. Through Summer EBT, families can get one payment per summer for each eligible child in their household. For the 2024-25 school year, Summer EBT benefits will be sent to families with eligible children starting in May 2025.
Your child will automatically qualify for Summer EBT if your household gets FoodShare, W-2 Cash Benefits, Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) benefits, or participates in certain income-based Medicaid programs If your household does not participate in one of these programs, there are actions you can take to see if your child can qualify before Summer EBT benefits are sent out for Summer 2025.
• You can apply to participate in one of the qualifying state benefit programs.
If you apply and are approved for FoodShare, W-2 Cash Benefits, FDPIR, or certain income-based Medicaid Programs before the end of Summer 2025, then your child who attends IOWA-GRANT SCHOOL DISTRICT will be eligible for Summer EBT for 2025. To learn more about applying for any of these state benefits you can call 211, visit access.wi.gov, or contact your local or tribal agency. Visit dhs.wi.gov/forwardhealth/imagency/index.htm to find the agency based on where you live who will help you apply or enroll for programs.
• You can apply directly for Summer EBT. You can apply on https://wisconsin.summerebtapp.com for Summer EBT. When applying for Summer EBT for your child(ren) who attend IOWA-GRANT SCHOOL DISRICT, you will need to show that your household meets the income requirements for the program. The Summer EBT webpage at dhs.wi.gov/sebt has more information on what these income requirements are.
Note: This information is for children that attend IOWA-GRANT SCHOOL DISTRICT. If you have another child that goes to a different school, the steps here might not be the right ones for them to qualify for Summer EBT and they may get a different letter explaining how they would qualify. You can visit dhs.wi.gov/sebt to learn more.
Getting Summer EBT does not affect whether your child can get other benefits, such as meals offered through the Summer Food Service Program (SFS) or Seamless Summer Option (SSO). To learn more about SFSP or SSO meal sites near you, visit https://dpi.wi.gov/community-nutrition/sfsp/find-summer-meals-site or call 211. You can also text ‘food’ to 304-304. Getting Summer EBT also does not affect your child’s or family’s immigration status.
If you have other questions about the Summer EBT program, please visit the Summer EBT webpage at dhs.wi.gov/sebt. You can also email your questions to dhssebtsupport@wi.gov.

Last Friday, the students at IGEMS were able to enjoy Bounce House Day. Each grade took turns playing throughout the day, and even some of our IG Teachers got in on the fun.
We want to thank the IG Parent Teacher Club for sponsoring this annual event for the students. Pizza sales from PTC's fall fundraiser help support this event.

Fresh air, fun activities, and plenty of laughs! Our 7th-grade class took a field trip to Blackhawk Lake on Friday for some fun activities and a lot of sun!

🐛➡️🦋Our 2nd graders have been busy scientists these past few weeks-raising painted lady butterflies and watching the magic of metamorphosis unfold right in our classroom! From tiny caterpillars to delicate chrysalises, and finally to beautiful butterflies, the students were captivated by every stage of the life cycle! 🐛➡️🦋
