Dear APS Parents and Guardians:

If you have not already completed the attached form for the current school year, please complete the form online at https://alpena.familyportal.cloud/ or print, complete and return it to your student’s school. If you need a printed copy to complete feel free to request one from your child’s school.


Responses are down significantly from previous years, while our student need is increasing dramatically. At the current response rates there will be significant funding loss for student supports and the potential for families to lose eligibility for free/reduced lunch.


The Education Benefits Form collects information needed to make sure your child’s school receives state and federal money for education programs. Without this information, APS could lose vital support and services for our students. These programs include, but are not limited to:

• Teaching staff (ex. reading tutors, math tutors, academic & behavior aids)

• Teaching supplies

• Counselors and social workers

• School nurses

• Training for staff

• Parent and community engagement supplies and events

• Chromebooks and iPads


Why does APS need my info?

Data on the Education Benefits Form determines the eligibility of a student. The total number of eligible students is used to determine how much money will be provided to your school. The more forms collected the better.


What do I need to do? Please complete the attached form on paper and return it to your child’s school or online at https://alpena.familyportal.cloud/.


Will this form be secure? Yes

Skiba Vision Center

Alpena Ace Hardware

Alpena GMC

Tom Heise- HTSS

Jordan Susewitz- Suseworks Media
