Paying for Meals
-
MySchoolBucks gives MRH families the convenience and flexibility of one account to securely pay for all of their students' meals and more with a credit card, debit card, or electronic check. With MySchoolBucks, parents are able to register for an account and view account balances or recent purchases in the school cafeteria, add money to their student's account, and set up low balance alerts through this system. Please note there is a small online fee per transaction.
MRH also accepts cash or check. Please make the check out to “MRH School District” and write the name and ID number of your child so we know which account to deposit it in. Any cash will need to be sent in a sealed envelope with “MRH School Nutrition Services” written on the outside with your child’s name and ID number. Any cash received without this written information will be deposited into our Angel Fund. Deposits will be made into the student's account at the end of the day.
Charging of meals is a privilege. We will not deny any student a meal or give them a replacement meal because we believe children should not be shamed in any circumstances.
You will be notified at least once a month if there is no money in your child’s account either through the student’s take-home materials, mail, or email. We strongly encourage families to prepay to prevent these notices.
Policy EF-AP(1) has more details about meal charging.
