Lunch Prices

This year our lunch prices are $3.50. Our breakfast prices are $2.25. If you qualify, reduced meals are $0.40 for lunch and $0.30 for breakfast.

Breakfast

Breakfast will be served from 8:00-8:30. Breakfast will be $2.00 for full paying and $0.30 if approved for reduced meals. Students approved for free lunches will also be approved for free breakfast.

Free and Reduced Applications

We will be continuing the free and reduced lunch program for any families that may need it. We have applications in the office and you will also be able to complete applications online. Go to http://capecharterschools.org and then click on District Information on the lower left corner. Click on the myschoolapps.com under the School Lunch item on the menu. It is important to note that it may take up to 10 days to process your free and reduced lunch application. You must pay the full price until your application has been approved. Last year’s status will carry over for the first 30 days. You MUST reapply for this school year. After the 30 days, your child will go back to full paying status without an approved application on file.

Lunch accounts and charges

Our policy is that a student may only charge two lunches and then they will receive a sandwich and milk. If paying for meals is becoming an issue, please see the cafeteria manager about filling out a free and reduced application.

**Online payments

In order to help parents know what their child’s lunch account balance is, we are strongly encouraging families to take advantage of our online payments option. Myschoolbucks.com is an online payment portal especially designed to allow parents to make quick and easy online payments to their children's school accounts. You will be able to pay with a credit card, check your child’s account balance, see what your child is eating, and receive account balance alerts and much more. Go to http://capecharterschools.org and then click on District Information on the lower left corner. Click on the myschoolbucks.com under the School Lunch item on the menu. You will need either your child’s birthdate or student i.d. number which is the same number you use to get into Focus to check grades.
