[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child's school cafeteria (in MCPS) does not take money, but more like a "debit card" that needs a PIN. You can add to the value of the card online (with small service charge) - or send in a check to the school office (no service charge). [/quote] Yes, the debit cards are the new way to go. Keep in mind, however, that schools will not deny kids food. So if the card is holding $2 and a kid buys something that's over $2, you will receive a bill. My friend's daughter was buying breakfast for her friend, too! very funny story But it pays to keep track and to explain to your child how that works. If a kid is on free and reduced meals (FARMs), then s/he will either pay at a discounted rate or receive free meals. If the school is the exception, 99% FARMs, for example, I doubt the 1% will have to pay. [/quote]
