[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That should read "all" of the community eligibility FARM schools have free aftercare[/quote] I'm pretty sure that's not accurate -- our daughter attends a community eligibility school, and the aftercare is not free for everyone. Meals are free for all, but aftercare is means-tested. But even if you don't qualify for free aftercare, it's still heavily subsidized ($10/day). Also, last I checked the "99%" FARMs number in the profiles on DCPS' website was a placeholder -- many community eligibility schools have a significantly lower percentage, but because those schools offer free meals to ALL kids, they don't require families to apply for FARMs & can't provide an accurate number.[/quote] That used to be the case, but DCPS changed this year to giving everyone free aftercare at these schools.
