One app is all you need for school meals starting July 18

Families will find it much easier to manage school meals starting July 18 when Chesterfield County Public Schools moves to SchoolCafe. This powerful app is replacing three apps previously used for viewing menus, paying for meals online and applying for free or reduced-price meals (MealViewer, MySchoolBucks and MySchoolApps).

In addition to making life simpler for families, SchoolCafe offers a great user experience and will continue to help families:

Make online payments for meals
View breakfast and lunch menus
Monitor your child’s cafeteria purchases
Set spending limits
Receive low balance notifications

Here’s what to do to get started with SchoolCafe:

Go to www.schoolcafe.com or download the free SchoolCafe app to your phone.
Create an account using your child’s student ID number. (You can find your child’s student ID via ParentVUE or by contacting your school.)
Set preferences and add funds as needed. (Any money that was in your MySchoolBucks account has been transferred to SchoolCafe.)
If you have questions or need help setting up your account, then call 866-442-6030 (toll free) or click the purple icon at the bottom of the screen to check out FAQs or chat with the SchoolCafe support team.
