With the current state of things, we want to remind you that you can fill out a Free & Reduced Meals application at anytime.
This program helps us feed our community, costs St. George MSU nothing, and if the percentage of our students who qualify for free or reduced meals exceeds the state average then out school could receive about $150,000 in additional state subsidy. If our percentage falls below the state average then we receive no state subsidy for economically disadvantaged students.
You can fill out an application online at https://bit.ly/MSULunchApp or access a paper copy at https://bit.ly/STG-SY2020FRM.

Is it hard to fall asleep at night? Are your kids worried that they will catch the coronavirus? Are you or your kids worried about re-entering into the world? If these worries or any other are taking center stage for you or your kids right now, please consider coming to the parent support group this Thursday the 7th at 8 PM or next Monday the 11th at 3 PM. After checking in, our focus will be anxiety. We will try to explore questions such as What's the difference between stress and anxiety? How do we know when we or our children need more support? What are some concrete strategies to help reduce our children's and our own anxiety? Amy Hufnagel, the school-wide Behavioral Interventionist, will facilitate the meeting. We look forward to the conversation.

Free Internet Offer from Spectrum
Spectrum (previously TimeWarner) is making its internet service available for free for 60 days to households with K-12 and/or college students who don’t already have internet through the company. To enroll in the program, call 1-844-488-8395. Installation fees will be waived for new student households. You should expect significant hold times as many families are taking advantage of this offer.
Please also be aware that the person on the phone MAY attempt to sell you other services. They may ask if your student is eligible for free or reduced meals. There may be a $5 fee per month to rent their wireless router. You do NOT need to purchase any services, though the wireless router is what allows multiple wireless devices like iPads, tablets or chromebooks to connect. In order to be eligible for free service you must not have an outstanding bill, and you must not have had service provided to your location in the past thirty days. After the sixty day initial offer you must remember to cancel your subscription. You do NOT need a credit card, and you do not need to sign a contract. This is NOT an endorsement of Spectrum, just a sharing of information that may be helpful to our families.
