School Meals Information
This year school breakfast and lunches are free, however, there are fees for extra items. If students take a reimbursable meal (based on Federal requirements), there is no charge. If students only need milk to go with their lunch from home, there is a $0.40 charge per carton. If students purchase anything extra besides their meal, they will be charged (Powerade, seconds on food, extra drinks or ala carte items-uncrustable, breakfast bar, etc.). Students need to have money in their accounts to cover these costs.
Weekly emails will be sent to those parents that have students with a negative balance. Payments can be made online at https://www.payschoolscentral.com/ or cash or check can be sent to the District Office to be applied to student accounts.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact the District Office at 218-385-4201.
Consider planning vacations within school vacations!
Regular school attendance is essential for student success. With consistent attendance, students will benefit both academically and socially. The NY Mills School also recognizes the myriad of benefits to family vacations. In an effort to have both good attendance and family vacations, we have provided a list of all long weekends in the upcoming school year. Please consider planning your family vacations during the school vacations. Thank you for your partnership in your children’s education!
