Pre-Payment Options

Pre-paying for student meals is another option by going to www.k12paymentcenter.com to add money to your child's account using a credit card. Users will be charged $1.95 processing fee when adding money to meal accounts. Online payments are simple, safe and secure way to make payments to your students' account 24 hours a day at your convenience.

You will need your child's student ID number. If you do not know the student ID number, please feel free to contact the child nutrition office (919) 774-6226. Please take advantage of the options to prepay your student's meal accounts. Prepaid meal accounts help the lunch lines go faster and gives students more time to eat, relax, and play. It also gives you the peace of mind of not having to worry about looking for lunch money every day or worry that it might get lost, stolen, or used for other things than lunch.

Send Check or Cash

You can always bring money personally or send it with your student. Please place it in an envelope marked clearly with your student's first and last name, their ID#, their teacher's name, and the amount enclosed.

Menus

Menu Revisions

While it is our intention to serve the posted menu every day at school, when changes to the posted menu become necessary, we will attempt to substitute the scheduled menu item with another item that is as similar as possible, to the extent we are able to do so, based on the products we are able to receive.

Community Eligibility Provision (CEP)

Lee County Schools and the Child Nutrition Department is excited to announce the implementation of the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) at each campus in our district. This provision enables each student the opportunity to receive a breakfast and lunch at no charge on days that school is in session. Students are no longer required to submit forms to obtain these free meals in Lee County Schools.

If you have additional questions not addressed above, please contact the Child Nutrition Office at (919) 774-6226 ext. 7205.

The Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) is a meal service option for schools and school districts in low-income areas. A key provision of the Healthy, Hunger Free Kids Act (HHFKA, Public Law 111-296; December 13, 2010), CEP allows the nation's highest poverty schools and districts to serve breakfast and lunch at no-cost to all enrolled students without the burden of collecting household applications. Instead, schools that adopt CEP are reimbursed using a formula based on the percentage of students participating in other specific means-tested programs, such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF).
