Welcome Food Services

  • Update to Child Nutrition Waivers for 22/23 School Year: 
     
    Please be aware that New York State did not extend the child nutrition waiver that allowed schools to serve free meals to all students. Please be sure to complete a free/reduced school lunch application for your child(ren). The application will be made available in mid August. Click here to access the free/reduced lunch application page. 
     
    Important notice for Parents/ Guardians:
    Please make sure your child/children have funds on deposit in their cafeteria account. Children who have exhausted their funds will be allowed to charge their meal, but they will not be allowed to charge extra a la carte items. Parents will be notified when their child's account balance is depleted or has a negative balance. Please make sure to send payment for account charges promptly.
     
    *Students who submitted a completed application for Child Nutrition Programs in the 2021/2022 school year will carry over into the current school year for up to 30 days. Eligibility from the previous school year will expire on 10/17/22. Please be sure to reapply for the 2022/23 school year prior to 10/17/2022.
     
    Need to add money to your child's account? No problem!
    The district has a program called MySchoolBucks in which you can monitor your child's account and add money if you wish. By participating in this program, your child will never have to worry about their account balance. You can also send a check to the district office or the cafeteria to apply money to your child's account. If you have any questions regarding your child's account, please feel free to call the Food Service Director, Anna Thomas at 716-286-7288 or Lynn Braunbach in the business office at 716-286-7245.
