Students enjoyed a few different treats today - 1st during their lunch, students were treated to a doughnut and cider as a result of a school wide, CLUE-based activity. Then later in day, selected students enjoyed a glow party as a result of fundraising efforts.
📢 Important Update for Virginia SNAP Recipients
Virginia will temporarily issue state-funded food assistance on a weekly basis to households’ existing EBT cards while federal SNAP benefits are delayed.
These state funds, called the Virginia Emergency Nutrition Assistance (VENA) program, will:
✅ Use the same EBT cards and beneficiaries as SNAP
✅ Deliver about ¼ of monthly benefits each week
✅ Begin issuing benefits on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays in November
For questions or the latest updates, visit DSS.Virginia.gov
or contact your local Department of Social Services office.
