📢 Attention Hesperia Families! 📢

The CEP Education Benefits Form is very important for our district. Completing this form not only ensures that your child receives free breakfast and lunch, but it also helps our schools access many other programs and resources that benefit all students.

Even if you think you might not qualify, please take a moment to fill out the form—every submission helps our district provide the best support for our students.
