Payment: Due to the new safety precautions, the easiest way to handle your food account is through MySchoolBucks, which is an online payment service that provides a quick way to add money to your child’s school meal account using a credit/debit card or electronic check. Please go to www.MySchoolBucks.com and create an account. Otherwise, please mail checks payable to: Portland School Lunch Program to 81 High Street, Portland, CT 06480. Address the envelope to Valley View School Attention: School Lunch Program. Make sure your child’s first and last name is at the bottom of the check so they know what account to pay. Please do not send cash into school with your child.
Free and Reduced Lunch Program: An application for the federally subsidized free or reduced lunch program can be found on the Portland Public Schools website and should be filled out as soon as possible. In addition to this, we will send home a copy of the form on the first day of school for you to fill out as soon as possible if you did not already complete it. Please understand that you will be charged for school lunch if you do not fill out the appropriate paperwork and receive approval. If you have any questions about the lunch program, you can contact the lunch program director at Portland High School at (860) 2627330.
