Payment:

West Point School Lunch Program is now computerized using the "Meals Plus" meal tracking system software. Your child is issued a 3 or 4 digit PIN number and enters that number into the key pad at the cash register. His/Her purchases are entered into the system at that point. You may continue to send a check to school payable to: West Point Lunch Fund in any amount and it will be credited to your child's account. You may also pay by credit card through the website: LunchPrepay.com. There is no fee to register your child however a 5% charge will be applied if you choose to deposit money into his/her account via your credit card. You may check lunch history and request a low balance e-mail. The cafeteria no longer sends out low balance letters. Please call the program manager's office to obtain your child's 10 digit ID number. You will need this number to register on LunchPrepay.com. Remember, unless you advise otherwise, your child will be able to charge ala-carte snacks to his/her lunch account with this new computerized system. We can block the account if you let us know.
