This school year (2024-2025), breakfast and lunch are free for all students enrolled in in-person learning! You do not need to worry about paying for these meals. However, if you want to buy extra items (such as an additional main course, ice cream, bottled water, etc.) or if you are a staff member, there are a few things you should know.

How to Pay for Extra Items and Staff Meals

We have partnered with LINQ Connect to make it easy to pay for extra items or staff meals. Here is how you can do it:

• Pay Online: Use the LINQ Connect Portal at https://linqconnect.com/main to fund your account.

• Use the App: Download the LINQ Connect mobile app to keep track of your account.

• Pay with a Check: You can send a personal check or cashier's check (no third-party checks).

• Pay with Cash: Cash is always accepted.

Important Reminders

Students: Students will only be able to purchase extra items if they have available funds in their account or cash at the time of purchase.

Staff: You must pay for your meals when you get them; charging meals is not allowed.

If you need help with paying for extra items or meals, please reach out to your school’s child nutrition manager.
