Paying for Lunch Accounts

Parents have three options to pay for their child's lunch account:

• Online – Using ww.myLunchMoney.com. The service is easy to use, convenient, private, and secure. There is a convenience fee of $1.95 per transaction. Once the account is open, parents may check the fund at any time from computer or phone.
  
  
• Check – Write a check to (child's school name) Food and Nutrition Services and bring the check to the food service manager's office. A local address and phone number are required to be printed or handwritten on the check. The student name and pin number are required on the check memo line. Parents who want their checks for meals only should write "MEALS ONLY" on their check.
  
  
• Cash – Cash may be brought to the food service manager's office for deposit on student's account, or students may pay cash on a daily basis.
  
  

  Please feel free to call with further questions.
