We encourage all parents/guardians to apply for the Free/Reduced meal program. If approved for free, both breakfast and lunch meals are covered (unless a child goes in for a 2nd lunch, which would be full price). If approved for reduced, lunch is .40 and breakfast is free. You can easily apply by going to https://www.schoolcafe.com/KENAIPENINSULABOROUGHSD or can scan the code below. Those students who are on the 30-day grace period from last year will switch to full pay on October 3rd if a new application is not received in the next day or two as it can take up to 10 days for District Student Nutrition to process.

Coats for Kids’ are housed here at Seward Elementary, and also down at Ukanuzit. Seward Rotary, with help from Columbia Sportswear, has provided coats, hats, gloves, and snow pants for children in need of some extra warmth once again this year! Please contact our school counselor, Christy Jordan at cjordan@kpbsd.org, if you would like some gear for your child, or if you’re aware of any child in our community who is in need of cold weather gear.
Thank you, Seward Alaska Rotary Club!

Good afternoon, Sea Lion families,
The first annual Seward Sea-Walk will be this Saturday at 11:30, just prior to the high school Homecoming football game. This is an opportunity for our Seahawk Seniors to welcome our new class of Sea Lion Kindergarten students. Seniors and their parents will begin at one side of the football field, kindergarten students and their parents will begin at the other side of the field. They will walk toward each other and meet in the middle of the field. The seniors will present a small gift to the kindergarten students. We hope this is a fun event for the whole Seward community. All are welcome to watch the Sea-Walk at 11:30 and stick around for the football game at 12:00. (Kindergarten parents, please be at the football field with your child by 11:15)

Would you like more information about your child’s development?
