Dear Parent/Guardian,
We are thrilled to be serving your child for the 2023-2024 school year!
The Office of Health and Nutrition Services (OHNS) is excited to announce the Fiscal Year 2024 State School Aid Budget includes $160 million for the Michigan School Meals State reimbursement program. All students at Mendon Community Schools will be able to receive breakfast and lunch at no cost for the School Year 2023-2024.
- Additional items can be purchased at a cost: extra entrees, drinks and snacks etc.
- Milk alone will cost $.50/carton. A complete meal can equal 1/2 cup vegetable, 1/2 cup of fruit and a milk for those students who bring their lunch – a good way to pack light and participate in school lunch.
- Meal applications are still being collected. Beyond the lunch program, the information is al used in considerations for paid testing and athletics among other student activities and programs that can offer discounts to families with benefits granted.
- Parents or guardians can submit this application online at https://mendon.familyportal.cloud or in person at your child’s school office.
It’s an easy and confidential way to ensure your child stays well-nourished at school.
Menus and nutrition facts and Account Deposits at Your Fingertips
Through Nutrislice, an innovative app, students, parents and faculty have access to school menus, including nutrition information, allergens, and photos. Nutrislice can be downloaded for free from the App store (iOS) or Google Play (Android) and is available on desktop and mobile devices. Menus are also available at https://mendonschools.nutrislice.com
Meal Magic’s Family Portal is not only for benefit applications. Here you can create an account to deposit money and track purchase history of your students. Money is deposited in real time and can be accessed by the student immediately. Deposits for milk and extras are conveniently done here. Also, students can always bring cash or a check for deposit into school.
We are always looking for talented individuals to join the dining services team with perks including family friendly schedules, no night or weekend work, hiring incentives, and more. For more information, click here to visit the Mendon District Jobs website.
