There is no requirement that the host school must participate in some sort of programing to qualify, unless it is a “closed” sight, that is, not open to the public. In that case applications for free and reduced meals are required. If the sight is open to the public, no program is required and no applications are required.

Where is the money going if not to maintain programs at the current level?
