​NO CHARGING POLICY EFFECTIVE MAY 1st, 2017

Students will not be allowed to charge on their school lunch account effective May 1st, 2017. 
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. 
​
FREE AND REDUCED APPLICATION

An email will be generated when your child's account reaches a + $5.00 or below; giving parents enough time to add money to their student's accounts.  You may turn these notices on and off thru Family Access.

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.

​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.
