Info

General Information (continued) Breakfast at the Eatery All of the schools in our district participate in the USDA Breakfast Program. This program, as does the USDA Lunch, meets USDA nutritional requirements. The USDA Breakfasts are designed to provide students with 1/4 of their daily nutritional requirements. Families may qualify for free or reduced-priced meals and pay according to their financial situation. See the section on Free or Reduced-price Applications. All USDA meals include milk. Please note: USDA regulations require that we serve a complete meal. Individual items, such as milk, can not be provided free to supplement an alternative meal brought from home. For information on serving times please check with your child’s school. At the Elementary Schools, the Breakfast menu is included with the Lunch menu that is sent home with your child from their school. Free or Reduced-price Applications If you choose to apply for free or reduced-price meals, each year you must fill out a new application (only one per family). The applications are approved based on a federal standard for household size and household income. These applications are available at registration or through your school office. On the backside of the application you will find the income guidelines used to determine if you qualify for school meal benefits. If you need any assistance, please call your school office or the Food Service office at 204-4001. Our office hours are 8:00 am to 3:00 pm Monday through Friday. Families that qualify for free or reduced-price meals may participate in both the USDA Lunch and Breakfast Programs. In accordance with Federal law and U.S. Department of Agriculture policy, this institution is prohibited from discriminating on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, age or disability. To file a complaint of discrimination, write USDA, Director, Office of Civil Rights, Room 326-W, Whitten Building, 1400 Independence Avenue, SW, Washington, D.C.20250-9410 or call (202)720-5964 (voice and TDD), USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer Payment Options The Madison Metropolitan School District Eatery has implemented the online payment option called MealPayPlus. This system is an Automated Online and Telephone based system which allows parents to make school meal prepayments. Note: You will need your child’s MMSD student ID number in order to set up a MealPayPlus account. If you do not know the account number for your child/children, please inquire about your child’s ID number at your school office or by calling Food Services at 204-4001. • • • View account balances, payments entered via MealpayPlus, and account activity AT NO COST Set up free email reminders to you know when your child’s account balance is getting low Create settings to automatically replenish your student’s Eatery account The Eatery at your child’s school has a computer based accounting system. Each child’s account is the same, whether the child qualifies for the free or reduced-price meals, or if they pay full price. In order to use their account, paying students must have funds on their Eatery account. Parents may utilize www. MealpayPlus.com or send checks or cash to school with their student. Deposits are accepted on any school day. Checks should be made payable to THE EATERY at your child’s school (example – East Eatery). Your child’s positive (or negative) balance will carry over year to year. This balance will follow your child within any MMSD school. ALL MEALS MUST BE PAID FOR IN ADVANCE. The Eatery staff at your child’s school maintains the account information. Unless you use www.MealpayPlus. com, the Eatery staff will enter money into the account as it is received. Envelopes are available through the Eatery or the school office. Should you need to inquire about the specifics of your child’s account, we have the capability of producing a detailed report indicating both payments received and the meals charged to your child’s account. If you visit school and would like to have lunch with your child, please let the school office know early that morning so we can plan a meal for you. Parents and non school-age children will be charged the adult price. Gi f t s f o r Sta f f (Bo a r d Po l i c y 8254A) In accordance with Board of Education policy 8254A, staff members are not permitted to "accept or solicit for personal use a gift worth more than token value from a pupil or parent...[however,] the Superintendent may make exceptions in extenuating circumstances such as cases of bereavement, illness or death.” Because many children enjoy giving things to their teachers, the District suggests that gifts take the form of a book, tape or game for the classroom or Library Media Center. In this way, all students can benefit from gifts given to teachers and other staff members. Gu e s t Sp e a k e r s Occasionally, teachers invite guest speakers into their classrooms. Teachers planning to use outside resource personnel must clear this with the principal prior to their “guest'’ appearance. Guest speakers report to the main office upon arrival at school.
