School Lunch Price Increase
Recent federal regulations require all school districts in the nation to increase the lunch rate to meet an approved rate if they have not already done so over the years. Because SCUSD was committed to keeping the price as low as possible for as long as possible, we have not increased the lunch price in over 10 years. The Nutrition Services Department remains committed to ensuring the menu is full of variety, taste, fresh and locally sourced fruits and vegetables, nutrition and value at the new price of $1.50 per elementary lunch and $2.00 for secondary. We invite your students to enhance their lunch with selections from our “Go Green, Eat Fresh Garden Salad Bar” that is offered daily.
Online Payment Service for Student Lunches to Launch
Starting February 1, SCUSD families will be able to pay for student meals online, which will streamline lunchtime cafeteria service, reduce long lines and eliminate risks associated with the handling of cash. Through the mySchoolBucks.com online payment system, parents can electronically deposit lunch money directly into SCUSD's cafeteria fund bank account. The service uses a "super-secure" data center with a 128-bit encryption for confidentiality. Families will be able to prepay for as many meals as they wish using a credit or debit card. A $2 fee will apply. Alink to this program will be available at www.scusd.edu.
