The Virginia Department of Social Services will issue a one-time $120 food benefit through Virginia SUN Bucks beginning August 2024 to children who qualify. Children qualify and are automatically enrolled in Virginia SUN Bucks if they receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), or an income-based Medical Assistance Program (Medicaid).
If you are not enrolled in SNAP, TANF, or Medicaid you can apply and potentially qualify for Virginia SUN Bucks by visiting VirginiaSunBucks.com and mailing the application to: Virginia Sun Bucks, c/o VDSS, 5600 Cox Road, Glen Allen, VA 23060. Applications will not be available until July 1, when the webpage goes live.
The Application for SUN Bucks will require you to enter your child’s “Local Student ID Number.” This is your child’s Lunch # they use at school.
If you qualify, SUN Bucks benefits will be distributed beginning August 2024 on a rolling basis and will be loaded onto your current SNAP EBT Card or a Virginia SUN Bucks card.
Washington County Schools is proud of @WashCoSuper, Dr. Keith Perrigan, who was honored this week for his outstanding support for leadership education. He models #WashingtonWay for all of us!

Summer Football Workouts for rising 7th and 8th Graders
Be sure to take a few moments and read this article, written by our Superintendent @WashCoSuper, that shares some very real and concerning challenges for many students in Southwest Virginia. Due to a "lack of equal access, an inequitable field of play has been inadvertently created in Virginia."
