50-cent increase for loading funds onto MySchoolBucks account

MySchoolBucks, the company that manages the district’s lunch payment system, is increasing its fee for loading funds onto lunch accounts. The price of lunches will not change.

Families can add funds to their child’s account via a credit or debit card on the MySchoolBucks site. MySchoolBucks charges a fee for the transaction. Starting March 7, that fee will increase from $2.75 to $3.25. If you have questions about this change, you can contact MySchoolBucks directly by logging into your account and starting an online chat or calling (855) 832-5226.

You may also make a payment on your child’s account by writing a check made out to “Community Consolidated School District 89” and sending it to school with your child. If you choose to pay by check, please be sure to write your child’s name, grade, and amount on the envelope. There is no fee when sending a check to school.
