Meal Charge Guidelines

Complete Meal Charge Guidelines
We have updated our unpaid meal charge guidelines to comply with the USDA and local meal charge policies and recommendations.

1. Students (K-12) will be allowed to charge up to $25.00 in full, reimbursable meals.
2. Students cannot charge a la carte items.
3. Nutrition Services will send an automated low-balance call two (2) times per week and two (2) automated low-balance emails per week for students with a negative balance.
4. Nutrition Services will make a personalized telephone call to the parent/guardian when a student’s account reaches a negative balance of $25.00.
5. The building principal will be notified by Nutrition Services when a student’s account reaches a negative balance of $50.00. The principal or designee will research additional resources/assistance and contact the student’s family if necessary.
6. The district’s Business Services office will begin to notify the parent/guardian when the student’s account reaches a negative balance of $60.00. This notification will be by phone call and/or certified letter, which will include a breakdown of outstanding charges and the payment due date.
7. K-12 students will not be denied a reimbursable meal for unpaid charges. If a student’s negative balance reaches $100.00, Nutrition Services will notify Business Services to begin collection procedures. Business Services will send the parent/guardian notification of the delinquent balance, a breakdown of outstanding charges and the payment due date. If payment is not received, the account will be sent to collections.
