Frequently asked questions
Why do I have a balance?
-It takes up to 2 business days for payments to reflect in our system when making an online payment. Sorry for any inconvenience.
-Sometimes students decide to eat breakfast or lunch even when they eat at home or bring a home lunch. Staff will not stop a student from charging breakfast or lunch unless we are explicitly asked to do so by their parents/guardian.These charges are still the responsibility of the parent/guardian. Make sure to have a conversation with your student about their ability to eat school breakfast or lunch.
-Students in Elementary are not allowed to charge a second meal. Secondary students are not allowed to buy a second meal unless we are given permission in advance from the parent/guardian and the students lunch balance is in the positive. If you believe your student has been charged for a second meal or have any other questions/concerns please email the nutrition director and request a review of your account. Please note that second meals are charged at the full paid rate regardless of if a student qualifies for free or reduced lunch.
