Food Service Payment Options
Online Portal - Allows parents/guardians to safely and securely make online payments for student meals (Breakfast and/or Lunch).
Check - Prepayment by check is accepted at the school, and is preferred over cash.
Checks need to be made out to Strafford School Lunch Program.
Please write your student’s name (and account number, if available) on the “Memo” line of the check.
For your convenience we do accept checks written to fund multiple student accounts. If you wish to send one check to be applied to multiple students' accounts, please include a note with the names (and account numbers if available) of each student, and the amount of money to be applied to each student’s account.
Funds deposited by check or cash will be available in the student’s account on the day they are received.
Cash - Cash can be accepted at the school, but is strongly discouraged for all. Cash payments are extremely difficult to track down if that cash payment is not received/applied by the cafeteria.
Restricting Access to School Food - Funds on student accounts are available for purchases of any cafeteria items. Parents/guardians (ONLY) can restrict account funds so they are only used for full meal purchases and/or to set limits on non-meal (a la carte) purchases. Please contact Food Service Director Nichole Rybicki if you would like a restriction or note placed on a student’s account.
FREE and REDUCED Meals
For anyone seeking information on Free and/or Reduced meals, please use the buttons below. Everyone is welcome to apply and every application will be evaluated as soon as it is received here at the SAU. The information is highly confidential and viewable by only two people here at the SAU. The district strongly encourages everyone to submit an application as our Free & Reduced numbers are used by the state and federal governments when determining federal grants and other forms of financial support for our district. This money helps offset a lot of the cost of operating our schools and helps keep local taxpayer rates significantly lower than they would be otherwise. Again, please apply as it only takes a few minutes and could benefit your family finances while also supporting keeping our local tax rates lower. If you need a hard copy, please contact the school or SAU office.
