The LCS Nutrition Services Department is in the process of upgrading the District's point of service and payment system. The planned implementation date is March 1, 2023. How will this affect students and families? * New hardware has been installed at each lunch register * Students eating school meals will use their lunch pin when coming through the line * Parents will need to set up a new account on SchoolCafe. Accounts can be set up online or by downloading the SchoolCafe app on Apple or Android devices. SchoolCafe will allow parents/students to: * Add funds to your student's account to pay for meals and a la carte items, as applicable * manage account transfers and refunds * set up automatic payments * set student purchasing restrictions and manage food allergies * view payment and student purchase history As part of this upgrade, Nutrition Services will be transferring all account balances to SchoolCafe from PayPams for each student. The account balances will be pulled the day before implementation to ensure student account balances are correct.
