We are asking families to fill out a very important form. Parents who have not yet filled out the Educational Benefits Form should do so by the end of the week. The form can be found at https://pdf.ac/3ZP94c and in Spanish at https://pdf.ac/3NhfVF. The information from the form is used by Kent County Public Schools in applying for funding to support students. To ensure proper reporting we need information from all families, regardless of household income levels. No personal information listed on the form is shared with outside agencies. Families can also directly benefit from submitting the form for programs, such as waivers on college application fees. Thank you!
