Dear Parents:
With current
national attention being focused on children’s
health and wellness issues, Northeastern Clinton
Central School District’s Food Service Department is
excited to provide parents a convenient, easy and
secure online prepayment service to deposit money
into your child’s account at any time. This service
also provides parents the ability to view your
child’s account balance through a web site called
MyNutrikids.com by having money in each child’s
account prior to entering the cafeteria, we find the
lunch lines move along much faster so your child has
more time to eat and be with friends.
Also, parents
will have the ability to print out a copy of their
child’s eating history report. This history report
will show all dates and times that your child has
purchased a breakfast and or lunch within the past
thirty days.
These new
services are available now!
To access these
services:
-
Simply go to
the district web site at
www.nccscougar.org.
-
Click on the
Food Services link.
-
Click on the
MyNutrikids.com link. From this site you will
create your account and add money to your
child’s school meal account. All you need is
your child’s name, student ID number and school
ZIP code. The instructions listed on the back
of this page will guide you through the easy
online account set up process.
Things to know:
Ø
If you have more
than one child in the District, you can handle all
online prepayments from the same online account.
Ø
Payments may be
made through an existing PayPal account or with a
major credit or debit card.
Ø
In order to use
the online prepayment service, a small convenience
fee for each transaction will be assessed to cover
the bank fees. The convenience fee is $1.75 per
deposit transaction. Parents placing money into
multiple meal accounts will only be assessed the
$1.75 fee once per deposit transaction. The School
District will
not profit from the use of this
site. To offset the cost of this convenience fee,
The District Food Service Department will continue
to provide one
FREE
meal for your son or daughter for every ten (10)
prepaid meals you put on their account.
We are very
excited to offer these new services and are
confident this new system will benefit you, your
child and our District. However, if you choose not
to take advantage of the online prepayment service,
you may continue to make advance payments via check,
which should be made payable to Northeastern Clinton
Central School District (NCCS). Please write your
child’s full
name on the check.
If you have any
questions about these new services, please feel free
to contact my office at 298-8242.
