District families may be receiving a Pandemic Electronic Benefit Card (P-BET) in the near future if they haven't received one already. This card is the result of having a student enrolled in an Ottumwa school during the pandemic shut down and based on the free/reduced lunch status of your child's school. Cards are for individual students so parents/guardians may receive more than one if more than one student was enrolled.
