Definition
Students are eligible for free or reduced-price
lunches based on family income criteria established
by the Federal government. The specific income
requirements depend upon the size of the family and
are adjusted each year. For example, in 2008 a
student in a family of four was eligible for free
lunches if the family had an annual income below
$27,560. This cutoff for eligibility for free lunches
was raised in 2009 to $28,665. In 2009 the income
limit for reduced-price lunches for a family of four
was $40,793, versus $39,220 in 2008.
There are two ways in which eligibility for free
or reduced-price lunches are determined. In one
method, parents complete applications for free or
reduced-price lunches. Child Nutrition Services
(CNS) reviews these applications, determines
eligibility, and regularly updates a central computer
file to indicate students eligible for free or reducedprice lunches. The second method instituted in 1993
directly certifies families as eligible for free or
reduced-price lunch based on family income
information collected by the Washington State
Department of Social and Human Services. After
matching student names and birth dates, eligibility is
determined, returned to Seattle Public Schools and
entered in the Child Nutrition Services database.
The free and reduced-price lunch data are used in a
variety of ways:
1. To indicate to lunch room managers that the
child should receive free or reduced price lunches
(and in some cases breakfasts);
2. To provide summary statistics that indicate the
relative income of school populations, groups of
students, or areas of the city; and
3. To determine whether a school, based on
summary statistics for the school, is eligible for
Results
The
following
tables
show
that
a
disproportionately higher percent of minority
students are from low-income families. The overall
number of students eligible for free or reduced-price
lunch rose by 491 students to 39.9% in 2009-2010
from 2008-2009, and is the third straight increase in
both number and percentage of students eligible for
free or reduced-price lunch since 2006-2007. As a
percentage of enrollment, Latino students eligible to
participate in free or reduced-price lunch decreased
0.8 percentage points, but increased for African
American, Asian and White ethnic groups by 1.9,
1.3 and 1.2 percentage points, respectively, from
2008-2009 to 2009-2010.
At the high school level, the overall percentage
of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunches
rose sharply for a second year from 37.2% to 40.7%
between 2008-2009 and 2009-2010. Compared to
2007-2008, the percent of American Indian high
school students eligible for free or reduced-price
lunches has fallen by 0.5 percentage points, while
rising for the African American, Latino and Asian
ethnic groups by 6.9, 8.0, and 8.5 percentage points,
respectively, in 2009-2010. 2009-2010 marked the
first year to year increase in the number and
percentage of White high school students eligible to
participate in free or reduced-price lunch since 20042005, with a 28.0% increase in the number of
eligible students (146 students) from 2008-2009 to
2009-2010.
The number of middle school students eligible
for free or reduced-price lunch in 2009-2010
increased by 55 students from 2008-2009, 42.0% of
total middle school enrollment. The Latino ethnic
group declined for the third year in the number (but

Definition
The Special Education office gathers and
maintains Special Education data on central
computer data files. When a student is referred to
Special Education, a record is created indicating that
this student has needs that are a focus of concern.
After assessment, if the student is found to be
eligible for Special Education services, the Special
Education staff develops an Individual Educational
Plan (IEP) for the student. This plan forms the basis
for most Special Education data collection. The
disability codes and data from the IEP are entered
into the computer file, and the file is updated
continuously as students progress through Special
Education programs and are reassessed. Special
Education enrollment counts, which include
preschool handicapped students, are reported
monthly to the State.
The data summarized here are based on June
2008 Special Education enrollment counts from
preschool through 12th grade. The District
enrollment figures used for percentages are taken
from June files, but differ from the June enrollment
used for other purposes in that preschool students are
also included in the total Special Education count in
the following tables and charts.
The first table, showing the number and percent
of students in all Special Education categories, is
presented in two parts. The first column in Part 1
shows the total number and percentage of students in
each ethnic group who are in Special Education
programs. The remaining columns in Part 1 and all
columns in Part 2 provide a similar breakdown for
each disability category.
The second set of tables and graphs shows
changes over time in the total number and
percentage of Special Education students and in the
Results
Overall, 14.4 percent of the students in the
District were enrolled in Special Education in June
2009. Within ethnic groups, Special Education
students range from 23.6% of all American Indian
students to 8.9% of all Asian students. The total
number of Specific Learning Disability students rose
slightly between June 2008 and June 2009 and rose
0.1 percent of total enrollment, ending six years of
declining percentages in this category since June
2002. The number of students identified as Specific
Learning Disabled ranges from 9.0% of all
American Indian students to 3.3% of all Asian
students. The other predominant categories are
Health
Impaired,
Developmentally
Delayed
(Preschool), Communication Disordered, and
Emotional Behavioral Disability (previously titled as
Seriously Behaviorally Disabled). A disproportionately larger number of African American
(and, as a percentage of enrollment, American
Indian) students are represented in these categories.
According to the trend data across the major
categories, American Indian students have exceeded
African American students with the highest rate of
eligibility for Special Education programs since
1995-1996. The Latino ethnic group slightly exceeds
the White ethnic group on intermediate rates of
eligibility. Asian students continue to show lower
rates of eligibility.
