HB 2092 requires Oklahoma public, charter, and private schools with at least 25% of students qualifying for free meals through programs like SNAP or foster care (called "identified students") to participate in the federal Community Eligibility Provision (CEP). This allows schools to provide free meals to all students without individual applications, based on the school's overall student eligibility. School districts must group schools to meet the 25% threshold if individual schools fall short, though schools already offering free meals to all students are exempt. The law directly affects schools meeting the eligibility criteria and takes effect July 1, 2025.
