  funds are required to make a debit card purchase.

Payment FAQ's

• What happens to the money in my child's debit account at
  the end of the school year?
  The funds remain in your child's account and will be available for the first day of school.
  A negative balance will also remain on account and will be required to be paid.
  For those students transferring from one school to another within the district, the money will be available in the new school.
  
  
• How will I know when the balance is low on my child's account?
  The food service cashiers will keep high school and middle school students informed of their remaining balance so they may notify their parents when they need additional funds deposited.
