Charging Policy:

There may be times when a student is in need of charging a meal due to forgetting his/her lunch money. District 303 has a policy in place to support these times.

• Hunger-Free Students Bill of Rights: Students will be allowed to choose a lunch regardless of whether the student has the ability to pay or has a negative balance on their meal account.
• Meals are considered full reimbursable meals and will continue to be debited from the student’s meal account.
• Electronic notifications will be sent on the 15th of every month. Once a student balance is negative, only a value meal purchase will be allowed.
• Unpaid student accounts, including student fee accounts and student meal accounts, are subject to collections.
• Please note that ala carte items including single cartons of milk, may not be charged to a negative balance account.

The High School food service vendor is Quest Food Management Services.

The High Schools do NOT participate in the School Breakfast Program (SBP) nor in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP); however, a variety of healthy and delicious meals are offered daily along with an extensive selection of a la carte items.
