All students that attend the OUSD District schools and all District staff shall each have an individual meal account. The payment procedures are listed below:

1. Payments may be made at a child’s school, mailed or dropped off at the School Office, or can be given to the food service cashier in the lunch line.

2. Payments that are sent to school should be in an envelope which is labeled with the student(s) name and the amount of the payment. One check may be sent to cover all students in one family.

3. Students and staff must prepay and have sufficient funds in their account to cover the cost of meals or additional foods purchased. No charging of meals or additional food purchases will be allowed if an account falls below zero.

4. Students and staff may pay cash daily for individual meals and additional food items.

There will be a $20.00 fee for each check returned to the district for non-sufficient funds. The fee covers the cost of time and materials spent on collecting cash for the NSF check.
