Student Lunch Accounts

Debit/Credit Card Deposits for Student Lunch Accounts

PaySchools Central is a secure and convenient website application that allows parents to add to their child’s meal account online using any Visa or Mastercard (including Debit Visa and Mastercard).

Each child in your family can be set up on the same account. There is an internet convenience fee associated with this service. Once the money is put on the account, it typically appears in your child’s lunch account within 4 hours.

Please note that we cannot take credit card payments at our office or at the schools; this is only available over the Internet. The use of PaySchools Central is optional; we will continue to accept cash and checks for deposits into meal accounts.
