  • Conveniently add money to your child's My School Bucks Account!

    To help ensure the health and safety of all our students and staff, we ask that parents please consider
    funding their student’s meal account online through MySchoolBucks.

    This will help minimize the amount of cash/check deposits that need to be handled throughout the day, which allows us to focus on serving meals as fast and efficiently as possible.

    Create your free MySchoolBucks account to conveniently and securely add money to your student’s
    meal account online or with the mobile app. With MySchoolBucks you’ll also be able to view cafeteria
    purchases, check your student’s balance, and receive low balance alerts.

    If you need assistance with your account, you can find helpful how-to videos and answers to commonly
    asked questions by visiting myschoolbucks.com. Or, you can contact MySchoolBucks directly by logging
    into your account to start a chat conversation or give them a call at (855) 832-5226.
