MEAL CHARGES

In accordance with state and federal law, the Vinton-Shellsburg school district adopts the following policy to ensure school district employees, families, and students have a shared understanding of expectations regarding meal charges. The policy seeks to allow students to receive the nutrition they need to stay focused during the school day, prevent the overt identification of students with insufficient funds to pay for school meals, and maintain the financial integrity of the nonprofit school nutrition program.

Payment of Meals

Students have use of a meal account. When the balance reaches $0.00 a student may charge no more than 3 meals to this account. When an account reaches this limit, a student will not be allowed to charge a la carte items until the negative account balance is paid. Parents may add dollars using our electronic payment options or having money paid at the school offices. Students will never be denied a meal. Notification of low balance will be made verbally, by note, or email.

Employees may use a charge account for meals but may not charge to this account. When an account reaches a negative balance of -$5.00, an employee will not be allowed to charge further meals or a la carte items until there is money in the account to cover the debt . Notification of low balance will be made verbally, by note, or email

Negative Account Balances

The school district will make reasonable efforts to notify families when meal account balances are low. Additionally, the school district will make reasonable efforts to collect unpaid meal charges classified as delinquent debt. The school district will coordinate communications with families to resolve the matter of unpaid charges. Families will be notified of an outstanding negative balance. Families will be notified by phone, email and or letter. Negative balances of more than $55, not paid prior to third day of the following month will be turned over to the superintendent or superintendent’s designee for collection. Options may include: collection agencies, small claims court, or any other legal method permitted by law.
