  • Nutrikids Point-of Sale System: The Nutrikids Point-of Sale (POS) system benefits you, your child, and the school in a number of practical ways. We use a computerized cash register system to ease the payment process for your child. Here’s how it works:

    • Funds are added to your myschoolbucks account using an unique student id provided to you by the school.

    • All students have been assigned an ID number to access their lunch account. This ID number will be like a PIN for an ATM machine. Students will be issued these numbers the week before we start to serve lunch.

    • Students will enter their ID number into a PIN pad at the cashier.

Know What Your Child Buys For Lunch: You have the ability to view and print out a copy of your child’s meal purchase history report. This history report will show all the dates and times that your child has purchased lunch within the past 30 days.  Please be advised that when you first create your account, you will only be able to see your child’s history for that day. To view the 30-day history, log out and then sign back in again.

Healthier US School Challenge (HUSSC): The Healthier US School Challenge (HUSSC) is a voluntary initiative established in 2004 to recognize schools participating in the National School Lunch Program that have created healthier school environments through promotion of nutrition and physical activity.

In alignment with HUSSC, we are committed to serving nutritious meals to your children. This commitment is at the heart of how we deliver on our promise to help students flourish. We encourage students to embrace good eating and healthy lifestyle habits at an early age, and a school’s food and nutrition program plays a big role in this effort. We’re excited about the opportunity to launch these new menus at your school.

Some features of the menu include:

  • A fruit or vegetable offered every day of the week

  • Fresh fruit and fresh vegetables offered whenever possible

  • Many entrées now offered whole grain

  • Only 1% and skim low-fat white and and 1% chocolate milk are offered
