Meal Charge Policy

District Charging Policy:

• Breakfast meals are free to all students regardless of eligibility status.

• In the event that a student loses their money or runs out of money on their meal account, CFBISD will allow students to charge reimbursable lunch meals for a grace period of ($15.00) for elementary students and ($11.25) for secondary students.

• A la carte purchases cannot be charged to an account once a student has a negative balance.

• To ensure that households are aware of the student’s negative balance, weekly email and phone call reminders will be sent to parents of students with a negative balance.

• It is our goal that no student will go without a meal. If a student reaches the charge limit, the school cafeteria will provide a courtesy lunch.

• If you have any questions, please call Student Nutrition at 972.968.6390.
