FREE and REDUCED STUDENT LUNCH STATUS - you can check your current status or print an eligibility letter by visiting www.schoollunchstatus.com. If you have applied for benefits before, please note that you will need to re-apply for this year's benefits. The Free or Reduced lunch eligibility status also makes students eligible for other benefits, such as reduced school fees, so it is important not to lose your status. Even though there is currently no cost for meals there are other benefits that accompany this status so it is important to keep your status updated each school year by October.

Transportation
Student Transportation is very important, and in order to keep all of our students safe and where they need to be, it is imperative that you keep their method of dismissal consistent. Also, we must always have the most updated contact information on file at all times. You may update your contact information at www.enrollcfb.com throughout the year. Please make sure your student knows how they are to get home each day. If a student's transportation method needs to change in the event of an emergency, please notify the student's teacher in writing as early in the day as possible. Anyone new that will be picking up your student needs to first be added to your student's pick up list and they must provide identification.
Update Student Information
If you need to change any of your contact information, such as phone number, email address, individuals that are allowed to pick up your student or change the permissions for school photography, you will need to update the information on the registration www.enrollcfb.com.
If your mailing address changes, please send your new residency documents to our registrar Liliana Rangel at rangell@cfbisd.edu. We must keep a current copy of your residency documents on file at all times.
