Meal Charging Policy

It is very important to keep you child's account current. If you  have any questions about the account, please call your child's school kitchen  manager.   

Anyone needing financial assistance (even for a temporary period) may fill out an application for free or reduced price meals. All schools have applications in the office, or you may call this department to request one. We also have a volunteer program in which free meals can be received for serving lunch at any of our schools. 

  • ELEMENTARY STUDENTS ARE ALLOWED TO CHARGE ONE LUNCH
  •      
  • SECONDARY STUDENTS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO CHARGE LUNCH.
  •      
  • STUDENTS EXCEEDING THE ALLOWABLE CHARGE WILL NOT RECEIVE A FULL MEAL.  THE STUDENT WILL RECEIVE A WHITE MILK AND ITEMS FROM THE FOOD BAR WITHOUT COST. This is a limited service to help the child until another arrangement can be made.
  •      
  • IF YOU CANNOT PAY THE CHARGES OWED YOU MUST SEND A LUNCH FROM HOME.
  •      
  • ONCE THE CHARGE HAS BEEN PAID THE STUDENT MAY RESUME BUYING LUNCH.
