Students can now purchase food from the Blues Café (cafeteria) using their student ID badge with funds that added with the parent SchoolCafe account.
How does it work?
- During food service, students choose the food they want to purchase.
- Scan their ID badge with the cashier when instructed.
- The cashier will add the items you chose to the register.
- The purchase will then be charged to the account.
- That's it!
What if I don't have enough money in my account?
- Typically, the cashier will let you know when you don't have enough funds in your account to make a purchase. Students then have the option of paying the difference with cash or removing items from their purchase. Students should then contact their parents/guardians to add funds to the account (which does take at least 20 minutes before it can be used).
How do I know the balance of my account?
- You can ask your parent(s) for the current balance, or you can ask the cashier during food service.
What about students with meal assistance?
- The finance department will add funds to your account each month.
Do students need an account?
- They do not. Accounts are set up automatically for them from PowerSchool.
Can students add funds to the account?
- Not at this time. It must be done via the parent SchoolCafe account.
If you have any questions, please contact your TA or the Blues Café manager.
