Apply for School Meals Online!

http://www.nyc.gov/accessnyc
Visit www.nyc.gov/accessnyc to apply for School Meals online.
Q. Why should I return an application if I am NOT eligible for free or reduced-price meals?
A. The application is also used to determine the amount of State funding our schools receive for supplies such as books, classroom furniture and other resources. If you feel that you are not eligible for free or reduced-price meals then check the box next to the statement I do not qualify for free or reduced-price meals.
Families only need to submit one application online for all their children, even if their children attend different types of schools (public, private or charter). If families have any questions about the application, they can send an email to OSCompliance@schools.nyc.gov or call the Office of School Food Help Desk at (718) 707-4400 to be directed appropriately.

Is your child playing a sport at I.C.E. this year or joining a team? We must have a consent form from you and a physical examination documented by a doctor. Download/print these forms and return them to your child's Advisor or Kellie Woodson, the Atheltic Director, a.s.a.p.

Physical Examination Form for Sports/Clubs

Please feel free to download, print, and fill out the 2009 Blue Card. The school MUST ask all parents to fill out this form annually to provide us up-to-date information regarding your child and consent for emergency medical treatment. This form must be in school before or on the 1st day of school. It also includes a space to give your child consent for Out Lunch if you wish to. You can also mail this form to:

or have your child bring it on the first day.
