Opting into CEP does not indicate CEP approval. CDE will work directly with sponsors to provide guidance on CEP implementation.


Submission of this form may initiate the CEP data validation process. CDE will communicate if any data validation is required. If so, CDE will verify each identified student and enrolled student at each site.

Please confirm with your district personnel.


If adding or removing sites, please complete the Site Request Form as soon as possible so the nutrition portal can be updated.
