Account Payment Options

POS

Rochester Community Schools operates its meal program using Point of Sale Computers (POS.) Our computers are capable of tracking all sales. Adding money to a student's account is a $3.00 per transaction charge. In addition, you may view a detailed account of what meals or snacks your child has purchased and your account balance by creating an account on https://www.myschoolbucks.com

This is how the system works:

All enrolled students have an account created for them.
To "open" your child's account: send any amount to pre-pay for any a la carte items including milk.
If your child has a negative account balance, he/she may not "charge" ala-carte items this includes milk.
In the event you move or your student graduates, you have six months to request a refund of unspent money or transfer unspent money to another student account in RCS. You must call 248-726-4602 for either a transfer of funds to another account, which takes place immediately, or request a refund. Refunds will be in the form of a check to the parent or guardian and take approximately 6-8 weeks.

When sending in a check or cash for your child's account please follow this procedure:

Print your child's name on the envelope.
Write teacher's name on the envelope.
List the dollar amount enclosed in the envelope (check or cash) and give to the cafeteria staff.
Checks should be made out to RCS.

Fueling Kids' Futures (formerly Blessings in a Backpack)

Fueling Kids’ Futures – One Meal at a Time, formerly Blessings in a Backpack, is designed to help meet the nutritional needs of students who participate in the Free or Reduced-Price School Meals program at school.

Each week during the school year, students enrolled in the program will receive a bag of non-perishable food items to take home on the weekends. Bags will be dispensed in a discreet and caring manner. The meals may include items such as macaroni and cheese, beef ravioli, canned tuna, granola bars, peanut butter, soups, fruit and other items.

There is no cost to participants for this program.

If you would like to have your child participate in this program, please fill out the attached form and return it to your student’s school as soon as possible. If you have more than one student attending the school, list the names of all children in the school. Please be sure to indicate on the form if your child has any food allergies. Parents and caregivers are responsible for checking all food labels when the food arrives home.

This program is a community-based program sponsored by Fueling Kids’ Futures, Community Foundation of Greater Rochester, the Kroger Corporation and the greater Rochester community, in a partnership with Rochester Community Schools. The district and sponsors will not be held responsible for any accidental food allergen exposure.

Our Brand Vision

Food is a big part of everyone's well-being, and students need a place to eat where they can connect with others, recharge, and enjoy a sense of happiness in their school. That's why we serve food kids love to eat and create programs that encourage fun and discovery.

Most importantly, we believe that happy cafeterias start with our people. So we empower them to go above and beyond to bring their personal “extra" for even more creativity and joy at meal-time.

Our goal every day is to make sure that students leave the cafeteria happier and healthier than they came in.
