FREE and REDUCED MEAL FORMS MUST BE FILLED OUT EVERY YEAR. YOUR STUDENT'S MEAL STATUS DOES NOT CARRY OVER, SO NEW FORMS MUST BE TURNED IN. PLEASE - if you think that your student might qualify for free or reduced meals, turn in the application! No one knows if a student is receiving a free or reduced meal - only the computers in the cafeteria, so the program is completely private.
Meals must be paid for before they are taken or when they are taken. Students who owe any amount to the cafeteria account are not allowed to purchase anything extra from our wellness-policy approved ala carte selections or super portions of lunch until their accounts are not in the negative.
To log on to MY SCHOOL ACCOUNT, click on "cafeteria menus" on the left-hand side of this webpage for the link. Use your student's Athens ID# for "My School Account." (You can get the student ID # from the school office, the cafeteria managers, or the Food Service Director.) When you sign up for the FREE program "My School Account, " you can look at your student's cafeteria activity and set up email notifications for low balances. You can also pay on line, with credit card only, through "My School Account." If you have problems with the "My School Account, " please contact FSS by email as they prefer at support@myschoolaccount.com.
Cafeteria PAYMENT: Pre-payment is preferred and keeps your student's account up-to-date! You may pay by cash, check or on-line at My School Account. If sending payment to school with your child, please put the payment in a sealed envelope with the child's name, date and amount of payment on the front of the envelope. When paying by check, put the child's first and last name in the comments section of the check. You may use one check to pay for mutiple students, but please note the amount to go to each student in the comment area of the check. Make checks to Athens Cafeteria. Students who owe on their cafeteria account will not be allowed to purchase extra portions or ala carte items, and those above elementary level will be given a cold sandwich (cheese or peanut butter and jelly) as the entree in their cafeteria meal at the cost of the regular meal.
LOOKING FOR A PART TIME JOB FOR SOME SPARE CASH? NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED! Consider being a cafeteria substitute worker. Most sub "days" are 2 hour or 3 hours shifts. We are always using subs in our six cafeterias, and when we hire permanent workers, we do so from those who have subbed. If interested, contact Lisa Horton at the District Office which is now located at Athens High School.
