The federal government has NOT extended the waivers that allowed all students access to free meals last school year, which means that during the 2022-2023 school year, families who do not qualify for free or reduced lunch will have to pay for school meals.
ALL food service accounts need to be brought current. For assistance with free or reduced-cost meals, please visit Free/Reduced-Cost Meal Application to check eligibility. You can also pay your child's lunch account with a credit/debit card online at MySchoolBucks.
In addition, you can also send cash or check with your child to school. If you have more than one child, you can write one check; specify how you would like it divided among your children in the memo.
Meals can be pre-paid weekly, monthly, or for the entire year. A minimum weekly payment of $10 is requested unless a patron qualifies for reduced-cost meals. Then, a weekly minimum of $2 is requested.
Here are four ways to pre-pay:
**Mail Check or Money Order Payable to:
Westfall Local School District
19463 Pherson Pike
Williamsport, OH 43164
**Online Banking; if your bank features online banking:
- In the memo section, type: Child's name and "Lunch."
- Keep in mind it may take 5-7 business days for your bank to make the transaction. (Verify with your bank)
**Drop checks, money orders, or cash in a sealed envelope at the designated area in each school building.
- Include the child's name, grade, and PIN number.
- Always write your child's name in the memo section of any check sent to the school.
Pre-payments received before 9:00 AM will be posted the same business day. Payments received after 9:00 AM will be posted the following business day.
