Important Lunch/Cafeteria Information for the 2023-2024 School Year.
The Diocese of Covington has changed the meal payment system for all schools participating in the National School Lunch program. We are no longer using the K12 payment center website.
The new service is Myschoolbucks.com which is now live. You can now create an account, selecting the Diocese of Covington as your district and adding your student(s). All money that remained at the end of the 2022-2023 school year was rolled over into the new system. Please use the site to set low balance notifications, make deposits, and answer any questions about what your students purchase daily by viewing history. As always, we will also be happy to deposit cash or checks at school. We ask that you put the money in an envelope with your student's name.
There have been increases in the price this school year lunch is now $3.40, and milk is $.55. The limit for charging meals remains the same at $20.00. It is impossible for ala carte items and beverages to be charged.
The SHDHS cafeteria webpage is located under parent resources. It will contain links to important documents, the link for free and reduced lunch, and the cafeteria menu for the month. Click here to access the cafeteria webpage.
If you have any additional questions or concerns, please contact the cafeteria manager, Deb Miller, at [email protected].
