You may send cash, personal checks, money orders, cashier's checks, or make payments online.

Include the following information with your payment:

School Nutition Services (SNS) offers an online service to give parents access to the activity on their child's lunch account. The online service can be accessed daily to check balances and purchases made by students. Parents have the option to make payments through this service, but this is an option and is not required in order to view activity on the account. The parent/guardian has 30 days from the date a purchase is posted to dispute questionable charges to the account.

Lunch activity may be obtained by creating an online account at www.paypams.com.
