You can re-apply at: https://linqconnect.com/public/meal-application/new OR you can request a paper application from the kitchen or office.
Please use LinqConnect to view the menu, student lunch balances, and purchase histories of each student in your household.
The only way to add money to student meal accounts using a credit or debit card is through EZPay.

PowerSchool is the online tool where you can see your student's grades, attendance, bus information, school fees, and Ecollect Forms.
If you have not yet set up your PowerSchool Parent account, please contact the office for the account information you will need. This information was provided with your fee receipt at Back to School Days.
Ecollect Forms: Each year we ask that you complete (or update) all forms including:
*Emergency Contact Information
* Medical Information
* Walking Field Trip and Media Release Permissions
*Consent to Share Lunch Status Information, which would influence school fees if your family qualifies.
Please make sure to pay outstanding school fees. You may send a check or cash in exact change to the office, or pay electronically via EZPay. This service is free to use! You will need your students' 6-digit ID number from the back to school mailing.
