➡️ Payment: Online, in person options
For 2023-24, we've changed from MySchoolBucks to LINQ Connect.
The 2022-23 balances were transferred to LINQ and are available for families when they sign in.
Setting up a LINQ Connect account is free and allows families to pre-pay for meals online and to avoid sending cash with children to school.
Parents will need the email provided to the school for communications and the name and birth dates of your child(ren) to set up their access.
From your account, you can:
- monitor your child(ren)'s activity,
- view menus, add funds (credit card only, transaction fee applies),
- and apply for free/reduced lunch
Connecting to your account
LINQ Connect Online Portal
LINQ Connect Mobile App
Other payment options
Payments can also be made directly to your child's school with cash or check (payable to School Nutrition). There are no transaction fees associated with these types of payment.
