NO CHARGING POLICY EFFECTIVE MAY 1st, 2017
Students will not be allowed to charge on their school lunch account effective May 1st, 2017. Parents have this week to pay off negative balances and keep enough money on account to cover purchases through the remainder of the school year. Our district has been facing a rapidly growing student cafeteria debt. The USDA has mandated that we address this issue and recover this money. Our main priority is feeding children and this will not change on May 1st. Our district offers the Free and Reduced Meal Program for those who would like to apply. All email notices were turned back on April 24th, 2017 to ensure that everyone is receiving low account balance notification. This email will be generated when your child's account reaches a + $5.00; giving parents enough time to add money to their student's accounts. You may turn these notices off thru Family Access. |

****************The Waterloo School District offers both breakfast and lunch on every FULL school day. Please note that breakfast is NOT served on 1/2 days. School Lunch Program Our District operates under the National School Lunch Program and offers healthy meals to all students. WCUSD5 offers free and reduced priced meals for those who are eligible. If you would like your family considered for this meal benefit, follow the application link above - print and return completed applications to Ruth Stueve - Director at Rogers Elementary School - 200 N Rogers Street - Waterloo, Illinois 62298. You may apply for the program at this time or any time during the school year. Applications are always available at each school office or by contacting the Cafeteria Director. A new application must be completed and on file for each new school year. THIS PROGRAM INCLUDES ONE FREE BREAKFAST AND ONE FREE LUNCH EACH SCHOOL DAY. ANY ITEMS PURCHASED INDIVIDUALLY ( ex. Milk ) WILL BE CHARGED AT A LA CARTE PRICING. Reduced price meals are $ .30 for breakfast and $ .40 for lunch at all schools. Contact Ms. Shull or any school cafeteria to have an application sent to you. If your family received a letter stating your child(ren) are directly certified for Free meals through the State of Illinois, an application is not required. Meal prices are set by the Board of Education and may have changed for the coming school year - please visit each school's link for pricing. The Elementary School students have their choice of lowfat/skim milk with each meal. Both the High School and the Jr. High School offer a fresh salad bar each day. These students are also offered low fat/skim milk and 100% fruit juice at each meal. WCUSD5 WELLNESS POLICY Debit System Each cafeteria operates on a debit system. Deposit any amount onto the students account and he/she has access to that money when entering their personal ID/PIN number at meal time. Students may bring money into school with them in an envelope that includes their name, ID number, homeroom (if pertinent), date and amount. It is our preference that students turn this money in prior to lunch so that it may be deposited early and ready for their use during meal service. One check may be written for multiple students - even if they attend different schools. Simply note on the envelope the amount each student should receive. SUMMER FEEDING PROGRAM INFORMATION |
