When you register your child at school, along with the papers that the school will have to give you, you will be given a form to fill out about the size of the family and the total monthly income. This form can be found on the school's website, or at thispage 

​

Here is a basic explanation of how to fill out this form:

(Open the page above and follow step by step)

 

STEP 1 (First step)

On the side, mark what applies to your child: Foster Child (adopted child), Migrant (migrant), Runway (child who ran away from home), Homeless (homeless), Head Start (which uses the head start program)
