Pay for your child’s school meals online using mySchoolBucks

You can pay for your child’s meals from the comfort of your home using mySchoolBucks — a secure online service that lets you pre-pay for meals online using a credit card, debit card or checking account.

mySchoolBucks allows you the convenience of adding funds to your child’s meal account, scheduling automatic payments, opting to receive an electronic “low funds” reminder message and viewing a monthly report of your child’s daily spending and purchases. If you do not want to pay online, you can still create an account to stay informed of what your child is choosing for lunch.

Breakfast/Lunch School Meals

Children need healthy meals to learn. Stillwater Central School District offers healthy meals every school day. Beginning July 1, 2019, students in New York State who are approved (with a free and reduced price meals application) will receive breakfast and lunch meals at no charge.

Please note that a federal program that provided free meals to every student is no longer in effect for the 2022-23 school year. Read more.

Free & Reduced Price Meals

A Free and Reduced Meal Application can be downloaded here.

Your children may qualify for the federal Free and Reduced Price Meals program. Complete one application for all students in your household and return it to your child’s building principal.

Stillwater does not have a free milk program. If a student wants a milk or an extra milk, it will need to be purchased. Applications can be filled out any time and they should be submitted to your child’s school building principal.

Meal Charging and Prohibition Against Meal Shaming

It is the District’s goal to provide students with access to nutritious no- or low-cost meals each school day and to ensure that a student whose parent/guardian has unpaid meal charges is not shamed or treated differently than a student whose parent/guardian does not have unpaid meal charges.
