Managing Your School Nutrition Account
All schools operate on a computerized pre-pay lunch accounting system. Meal, milk and a la carte purchases are made through this system. Accounts are set up by family. Students with siblings anywhere in the district will access the same account. This allows families to make 1 payment for all their students. In addition, you are able to check your balance as well as purchases online daily by visiting Infinite Campus.
Students access the system by an ID card. Middle and High school students must have their identification card to scan in order to use the lunch cashier system. Student photos are used to verify the ID number.
Payments
Payments to your family account may be sent with your child to their school building (please put the child’s first and last name as well as family ID number on the check) or you may use our online payment service located in Infinite Campus, transferring money from your checking account or by debit or credit card payment.
It is the responsibility of the parent or guardian to maintain a positive balance in the family account. Students with balances that fall below $5.00 will be reminded by the cashier that the account is low. The School Nutrition department will send out weekly emails to remind you of low and negative balances.
Parents should discuss purchasing guidelines with their children in advance to prevent unwelcome charges to their account. Please contact School Nutrition if you wish to set up a limit for this.
