     (On-line Prepay) 

New at Grant Public Schools, you can now make deposits, check balances and view the activity in your child’s school lunch account. Grant Public Schools has implemented new Point-of-Sale software that will allow you to initiate payments online with your Visa, MasterCard or Discover credit or debit card.  If you have more than one student you will be able to designate amounts to different student accounts. There will be a small flat fee of $1.50 per transaction for each deposit to cover the additional costs of this process. 
(If you deposit into more than one student account, it is only $1.50 as long as it is done all in one transaction.)

On the Grant Public Schools website (www.grantps.net), click on ‘Information’ then on ‘School Lunch’.  Then click on ‘Online Pre-Pay’ to see links for ‘Frequently Asked Questions’ and ‘Setup Instructions’.  The ‘Send Money to School’ link will take you to, www.sendmoneytoschool.com to get started.  Contact Food Service Director Annie Pascoe (231-834-5888) for your student’s ID number prior to setting up your on-line account.  Your middle school or high school student may already know their ID. 

It is requested that you maintain a minimum balance of $10.00 in your student’s account.

LUNCH MENUS

School breakfast & lunch prices for the 2010-2011 school year are as follows:

LUNCH PRICES

 Our yearly financial goal is to break-even and be able to maintain a self-supporting status. We have to keep up with yearly increases in salaries and benefits, equipment replacement needs for school cafeterias and rising utility, paper and food costs. Any surplus funds at the end of the school year go back into the program to help us keep costs down and meet future needs. 

Our lunch is a good value for your money. A School Lunch will get you: Hot sandwich or entree, roll, three (3) fruits and/or vegetable sides, and 8 ounces of milk for only $2.55 for High School, $2.30 at the Middle School and $2.05 at Elementary and Primary Center and no tax.  Breakfast is FREE

PREPAID MEALS

Our lunch program is now  automated.  Students may prepay for meals and ala carte items.  Each student has an account in which money can be deposited by you for lunch and food items.  The student has an identification card that is scanned in the cafeteria.  It automatically deducts the proper amount from the child's account each time it is used.  No more worries about lunch money each day and handling change.  In addition, it also informs cashiers about food allergies or other dietary warnings.  It can also alert us to the foods you want to purchase or restrict from your child's lunch. Contact your school  prepaid meals and other options, or call us at School Food Service, 834-5888. Thanks for your support! 

FREE & REDUCED LUNCH 

All free and reduced applications will be handled in the School Food Service office to better serve you. Please call Mrs. Pascoe between 6:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. at 834-5888 if you have questions.

NONDISCRIMINATION

 Children who receive free or reduced price meals are treated the same as those who pay for meals. No child will be discriminated against in the operation of child feeding programs because of race, sex, color, national origin or handicap. 

"All meals served must meet patterns established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. However, if a child has been determined by a doctor to be handicapped and the handicap would prevent the child from eating the regular school meal, the school will make substitutions prescribed by the doctor. If a substitution is needed, there will be no extra charge for the meal."   If you have a doctor's order requiring a food substitution because of a handicap, please get in touch with us for further information.
