Payment Information

All parents should visit https://www.schoolcafe.com to register for an account and add their students. School Café can be accessed from your desktop or on your smartphone through the School Café app. The video link below provides instructions on registering for an account, adding your students, and other helpful information.
*Please note all money in My School Bucks accounts will roll over to School Café. Free or reduced lunch status will also roll over to School Café for the first 30 days of school. After that, you will have to reapply for free/reduced lunch, unless otherwise stated by the district.
- District Wide Breakfast- $1.25
- Elementary Lunch- $2.60

Do I have to fill out a free and reduced meal application each year?
Yes! The federal program requires that the application be filled out with all the required information before it can be processed. Parents need to fill out only one application for all the children they have in the school district.
