Free and Reduced Price School Meals
This is a reminder about New York State’s Free and Reduced Price School Meals Program. This is a completely confidential program and eligible families are highly encouraged to participate in it. Families who qualify for the program must complete an annual application to receive free or reduced-price school meals. A reminder that even if your student participated in the program last year, you need to reapply for this school year. See the annual public announcement for the 2023-24 Income Eligibility Guidelines here.
Schodack’s 2023-24 Food Services Family Letter here provides more details about the program and you can find the application below. Applications can be turned in at any time during the school year.
For more information contact Michelle Dellavechia, via phone (518-732-2297 Ext. 2361) or email (mdellavechia@schodack.k12.ny.us).
Refilling & Checking Your Student’s Cafeteria Account
You can put money into your student’s cafeteria account at any time using MySchoolBucks.com (www.myschoolbucks.com). You will need their Student ID number, which is available on the Parent Portal or by calling your school’s main office.
Students use a 4-digit PIN at the cafeteria register to make food purchases using the money in their accounts or cash is also accepted. If your student qualifies for Free and Reduced Meals, they can receive one free breakfast meal and one free lunch meal per day. Additional food/drink items (ex. snack bar, snack milk/juice) outside of those meals are not free and student accounts will be charged for them.
If you would prefer to put money in their account in a different way, you can also send in cash or a check to your school’s main office. Please make checks payable to “SCSD” and include your student’s 4-digit meal account PIN.
