AGREEMENT
ADDENDUM 2020-2021
Name of Sponsor
The above named sponsor, also known as the Local Education Agency (LEA), desires to op
erate an
Afterschool Snack Program, and meets the following criteria:
1) Operates a day school, boarding school, or residential child care institution (RCCI).
2) Operates an afterschool care program providing education or enrichment activities in an
organized, structured, a
nd supervised environment.
3) Meets any state or local licensing, health and safety requirements for operating an
afterschool care progra
m.
The LEA agrees to meet the following requirements:
a) Claim for reimbursement only after-school snacks served that meet the meal pattern for
snacks as set forth in 7 CFR sections 210.10(n) and 210.10a(j). (see attached chart)
b) Claim for reimbursement only those snacks served on school days during afterschool
care programs. Any snacks serv
ed before or during the child=s school day may not be
claimed for reimbursement. Snacks served on weekends, holidays, or vacation periods
may not be claimed for reimbursement, unless the snack is served during an activity or
care program that takes place after an education activity that is determined to be an
integral part of the curriculum or an actual extension of the local educational program.
Afterschool snacks may be claimed on days when summer school is in session if this
summer school is an integral part of the curriculum or an extension of the local
educational program.
c) Claim reimbursement for no more than one snack per child per day. Chil
dren from birth
to age 18, or who turn 19 during the school year, or a student of any age who is
disabled, are eligible.
d) Keep a roster list, sign-in sheet, or other means to determine that children are in
attendance for the afterschool care program on a given day.
e) Claim snacks in the correct reimbursement category. To determine the correct catego
ry,
you must determine the percentage of your schools total enrollment that has been
approved eligible for free or reduced price meals for the most recent month of October.
First, divide your current enrollment by the number of students approved eligible for free
or reduced price meals. If this number is 50% or greater, then you would claim all
snacks served to eligible children in the free reimbursement category, regardless of each
individual child’s eligibility for free or reduced price meals. Example: Enrollment = 150;
number eligible for free or reduced = 80; 80/150 = 53%. All snacks can be claimed as
free, and all snacks must be served to children at no charge.
If this percentage is less than 50%, then you may use the eligibility data of the public
school in whose attendance area your school is located. You must, however, contact
the West Virginia Department of Education, Office of Child Nutrition to obtain approval to
use this method.
