Suffolk Public Schools offers an online pre-payment option for student meal accounts at all 20 schools.

This service provides peace of mind to parents and faster lunch lines for students. Parents can prepay for their child's school food charges, using a credit card through a secure website. The new program also allows parents to set spending limits and to monitor what their children are buying in the cafeteria.

All personal and payment card information is protected by the most advanced Internet security. Student information is safe and private.

Parents of current students will register directly on the website, using their child's student ID number. Students should know their own ID number because they use it to log on to school computers. The student ID can also be found on the report card and through an active Parent Connection account.

SCHOOL CHANGING in SEPTEMBER?

Please note that if your child changes schools this year, parents will need to update that information on the website. This option will be available in early August.

For more information, contact Brian Williams, the school division's food services supervisor, at 925-5789.
