Educational Benefits 2026-27 School Year

We need your help! Meals are free again this year, but we still need all families to complete an Educational Benefits application each year.

Educational Benefits are about more than just free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch. Families who qualify may also receive discounts on device protection plans, band and orchestra instruments, and much more!

Even if you think you may not qualify, completing the application can still help our school receive additional funding and resources that benefit all students. Please complete your application today, as processing can take up to 10 business days.

To complete the application online:

  1. Visit LINQ Connect.
  2. Confirm Robbinsdale Area Schools is in the box under General Information. Click Next.
  3. Follow the instructions to complete your online application.

An eligibility notice letter will be sent out via USPS mail or email within 10 business days. 

If you would like a paper copy of the application for educational benefits, available in English, Hmong, Spanish, and Somali, or if you have questions, please call 763-504-8050 or email NutritionServices@rdale.org.
