Payment Policies
FREE School Breakfast and Lunch Meals for ALL STUDENTS!!!!
Prepaid Procedure (This information only applies for students that want to make ala carte purchases on their POS Account.)
Because each student has an individual account in our POS system, parents may send in a check or cash to deposit in their child’s account. As a student eats each day, the computer automatically deducts one lunch payment from their account. The computer will only deduct one meal a day and if a student were to purchase anything else, it is done on an a la carte basis. You may send prepayment money into each school with your child or send payments to the Food Service Office at 5 West Street, Auburn, MA 01501. We are also able to split a check between siblings within the system if prepayment is sent to our main office.
Online Payment
Parents will be able to view their students’ accounts and make payments through LINQ Connect. Set up your account or make payments online at: https://linqconnect.com/S9J5MQ
Charging Procedure
Because our system allows prepayments, it also allows students to go through the cafeteria line and purchase items without money. The computer then charges that student’s account for a meal or the items that were purchased a la carte. We discourage charging and at the high school level as we have had a great deal of abuse of this benefit. There will be no charging at any of the school this year.

Meal Applications will not be availble this year.

Allergies
We can post allergies on your child’s profile. Please provide the nurses at your school information about an allergy your student has. In order for us to consider this as a valid allergy we must have a doctor’s note stating the child has an allergy. We will only post valid allergies on your student account. We hope this helps provide a safe eating environment for your student and can relieve some of the stress parents feel about allergy situations at school.
