Understanding Your Child’s Account
Save money and make your child’s foodservice account work for you!
Put funds on your child's account online before 8/19/11 and receive a discount!
Cash transactions at
the register are time consuming, sometimes overwhelming, and decrease the
amount of time that your child has to eat. Funds on account allow for a simple debit
purchase, enhancing and improving your child’s dining experience. All online deposits for children’s accounts placed
using MyPaymentsPlus by 8/19/11 will receive a 10% credit
(5.25% account credit + 4.75% processing fee credit). For example, for each $20.00
placed on account, $20.95 will be charged to your credit card ($20.00 + .95(4.75%
processing fee) = $20.95). The Food Services Program will credit your child’s
account $2.00 resulting in a total deposit of $22.00 to your child’s account. To qualify for this discount you must use our
online payment system, MyPaymentsPlus, at www.meriden.k12.ct.us
to make prepayments.
Make sure your child is buying lunch with their monies on account!
Using MyPaymentsPlus you may now lookup student histories (up to 30 calendar days at a time) at no charge!
Log-in at www.mypaymentsplus.com at no cost to check student’s meal account balances and monitor the food items your student purchases at school.
Create settings at no cost to automatically receive a notification email when the balance on your student’s account is low.
There is no cost to create an account, set up low balance email notifications or lookup purchase history and account balances!
If you are concerned about how your child is spending their monies on account, the account can be limited to ensure that only a breakfast or lunch can be purchased. Before you formally request this limitation be placed on your child’s account, please note the following:
Nothing besides a breakfast or a lunch will be able to be purchased on account if this block is placed on the account. This means your child will not be able to purchase a water, milk, juice or fruit unless they are paying in cash. It is not possible to block only some items.
Please call our offices at 203-630-4166 if you would like to consider placing this block on your child’s account
