Good Afternoon Pirate Nation,
The Heart of Texas Council of Governments will return to the Chilton ISD Campus on Thursday, September 2, 2021 from 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. to administer second doses of the vaccination for those who were vaccinated on August 12, 2021. Additionally, they will be available to administer first vaccinations to those teachers, students, and community members requiring the vaccine. If you have any questions, please contact Dr. Brandon Hubbard at 254-546-1227.
Hello Pirate Nation,
Please follow the link to the newsletter for an overview of the new 7 Mindsets unit we are beginning, We Are Connected. Over the next few weeks, I hope that you'll take the opportunity to discuss this mindset with your child and complete the suggested activities to learn and grow together. As we push through the hardships that life presents, we must understand that no challenge is to big when we are, genuinely, connected to others who will help us along. It is our desire, in Chilton ISD, that we embrace this mindset and understand that we are stronger together. After all, #WeAreFamily.

P-EBT Announcements
The Pandemic-Electronic Benefits Transfer (P-EBT) helped millions of Texas children who temporarily lost access to free school meals during the 2020-2021 school year. The U.S. Department of Agriculture recently added a one-time summer P-EBT summer benefit. Eligible families may be able to receive an additional $375 to supplement their family’s budget during the covered summer period Families that submit a household application before August 28 and meet one of the following criteria may receive the $375 Summer Pandemic-Electronic Benefit Transfer (P-EBT) through a direct distribution from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC).
Are newly eligible for P-EBT based on a change in family income after June 30, 2021 or are income eligible and did not have a household application on file during the 2020-2021 school year.
Have not yet applied for P-EBT and have children who were certified for free or reduced-price meals through the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and enrolled in an NSLP school in the last month of the 2020-2021 school year. Note: These families must submit applications through MyTexasBenefits.
Schools should ensure parents can access the NSLP household application so families can obtain summer PEBT benefits.
*Campuses that will be operating CEP for the first time in SY 21/22 MAY ONLY process TEA's Socio Economic Status (SES) Form to demonstrate eligibility for children.*
Additional Information for Schools and Families
The deadline to apply for P-EBT benefits through https://yourtexasbenefits.com/Learn/PEBT. (The link is case sensitive.) is September 13. Household eligibility for the 2020-21 school year P-EBT benefits cannot be changed at this time. We are working with the HHSC call center to field questions from families and to ensure that correct information is being shared. Household applications received after August 28, 2021, should be processed but cannot be used to determine eligibility for Summer P-EBT.

Pirate Nation,
The 2021-2022 school year is upon us! Despite the difficulties and challenges that lie ahead, I know that our students and staff members will be super successful. As a reminder, please do not drop students off before 7:30 a.m. We want to ensure that monitors are in place as our students start to arrive.
We are asking that parents not enter the building tomorrow morning. Please follow the drop-off line. We understand the inconvenience that this causes for some. However, we believe it to be the safest way to start our school year.
Thank you in advance for all that you will do to help us ensure that the 2021-2022 school year is the best one yet for Chilton ISD.
Per Aspera Ad Astra...Through Difficulty to the STARS!
