Important Information for the 2024-25 School Year
Mayfield Central School District has implemented a meal certification option to our schools under the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Program called the Community Eligibility Provision. This means all students enrolled at Mayfield Central School District are eligible to receive a healthy breakfast and lunch at school at no charge to your household each day of the 2024-2025 school year.
We are asking all families to fill out the Household Income Eligibility Form. This form collects basic information about your students and is helpful information that contributes to providing additional money and services directly to our school. More information on this form and what it means for our school can be found in the 2024-25 School Meal Program Letter to Parents.
If you child wants additional food beyond what is provided; extra meals, snacks and drinks are available for purchase in the cafeteria. They will need to have money on their meal account or cash/check in hand for such items. Milk will continue to be available for purchase.
Pricing for extra meals/milk:
- Lunch Special (extra meal): $1.25
- Student Milk (district wide): $.65
Payment for Meals
When sending money in for your child/children’s meal accounts, please send it in an envelope or sealed bag with their name(s), teacher(s) and how you want the amount split. You can include more than one student’s money in an envelope/bag, and the students can be in different school buildings.
Pre-Pay through MySchoolBucks
You can access your child’s school lunch account online at MySchoolBucks.com.
Use your existing PayPal account, credit card or debit card to make prepayments to your children’s accounts through the MySchoolBucks website. In the cafeterias, students use the point of sale system to access the funds in their accounts when they purchase extra meals, snacks or drinks.
MySchoolBucks payments include a program convenience fee. Due to rising payment processing interchange fees and continued increases in operational costs, we’re updating the MySchoolBucks program fee that parents and guardians pay at checkout to $3.25 for all cafeteria credit/debit card prepayments beginning on March 7th.
Through the system, you also have the opportunity to monitor your children’s purchase history. The web-based reports provide all dates and times that your children purchased extra meals, snacks or drinks in the past 30 days.
For questions please contact Chris Diamantatos, School Lunch Director.
