FAQPlease e-mail me your questions and comments. I will gladly post them along with my answers/responses!
Can I charge my child's lunch account on line? No, We have not implemented the credit system as of yet. We are currently looking into it and hope to have this option available in the near future. How do I know when my child's account is close to 0? The cashiers in each school print out reminders to send home each week on Thursday. You will get a reminder only if your child's account falls below $6.00. Remember the price of lunch and any extras you are permitting and do the math! The idea behind having a lunch account is to pay in advance. Many parents choose to send in $50 or $100 at a time, but you can send as much as you feel comfortable with. If my child runs out of money in their account will they still be able to eat? Yes...BUT, WE DISCOURAGE THIS!!! If your child is in a negative balance, they will be permitted no snacks and are required to charge a full lunch (See announcements page for a definition). You are expected to pay for any charges immediately. The building principal will receive a list of students with charges that are more than 1 week old. Report cards will not be given out to students who have charge balances at the end of the school year. How do I control how much money my child is spending on extras? Call the Food Service office at 330-757-7000 ext. 1038 and request a daily spending limit to be set for your child. There is NO OPTION for a weekly limit, ONLY DAILY!! Remember, if your child does not buy a TYPE A lunch and buys primarily Ala Carte then they will not be able to buy like this if you set limits on extras (ala carte items). What if my child has a $1.00 limit on extras and they want to buy extra pizza? This was a problem in the beginning of the program but I have now eliminated entree's from the "extra" classification in the program so they can buy as many entree items as they want. How can I spend less money on my childs lunch? See the announcements page! My family is new to Poland and we have never used this POS system before... MANY MANY MANY Questions are answered on the announcements page! Make sure you visit it! Check out the LINKS page too for lots of cool web pages to visit! My Child has food allergies. Where can I get ingredient and recipe info? There are general recipes in the forms area of this web page. I have put together a few binders to hand out to parents who have children with food allergies. Please call my office at 330-757- 7000 ext 1038 to request one and you can come in and pick it up! |
