EDUCATIONAL BENEFITS FORM
YOUR 5 MINUTES HELPS EVERY STUDENT
Formerly the Household Income / Meal Application,
this is our most important back-to-school form.
Every year, incomplete forms mean BVUSD loses funding and eligible families miss out on opportunities for support — including no/reduced-cost before/after school care!
WHAT IS IT?
The Educational Benefits Form is separate from the 2 household income questions during PDC, and it’s actually an economic sensor for our district.
Meals are free now (for all students), but this form remains an economic sensor for our district.
MORE FORMS = MORE FUNDING
The Educational Benefits Form benefits every single student
in our schools and all eligible families, and it’s:
HOW YOUR 5 MINUTES HELPS EVERY STUDENT
The number of approved applications directly influences the amount of funding our district receives from the state.
Completed applications help BVUSD secure critical funding for all students by funding things like: technology, internet access, after-school programs, instructional support, and more.
ELIGIBLE HOUSEHOLDS ALSO BENEFIT
You may qualify for free or reduced-price services, support, and programs like:
home internet, extracurricular savings, and even before/after school care.
Plus, later on, eligible students receive college entrance benefits like:
reduced/waived exam & application fees and access to scholarship opportunities.
100% SAFE & CONFIDENTIAL
Your family's privacy is protected by strict federal law. The information you submit is completely confidential. It is never shared with teachers, classmates, or other families, and it is only used to secure school funding and target resources.
ELIGIBILITY
Eligibility details change annually, but estimated scales for 2026–27 are below.
Even if you're outside the eligibility window, we encourage you to apply.
Estimated Monthly Income – by Household Size
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $2,500 | $3,400 | $4,300 | $5,100 | $6,000 | $6,900 | $7,800 | $8,600 |
