Check Meal Account Balances

Parents can use the PaySchools Central system to check lunch balances, view transactions, add funds for their student/s meals, and pay school fees. (PaySchools has replaced EZPay!) *Please Note: PaySchools is in the process of transferring all account balances, but it is not complete yet. Your child's balance will be transferred over!

There is completely no charge to set up an account, and you can register by clicking the PaySchools Central icon!

Findlay City Schools has a “No Charge” policy in all of our cafeterias. If students have no funds to purchase lunch, they will be offered a sandwich and milk at no charge. This is limited to three occurrences in a quarter.

If you have any questions regarding this policy, please contact the Director of Food Services.

Food Sale Standards: Board Policy EFF

Smart Snacks in School

We are focused on the health of our school environment. Our school district has established nutrition standards for all snacks sold in school by any entity, including parent/student organizations, teachers, boosters, fundraisers, or the food and nutrition services department. These standards for snack sales are in effect from any time before school through 1/2 hour after school, in accordance with the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act, the USDA and our district Wellness Policy. Non-compliant foods may be sold from 1/2 hour after school through midnight. These standards carefully balance science-based nutrition guidelines with practical and flexible solutions to promote healthier eating on campus.

Student Wellness: Board Policy EFG

Meals, foods and beverages sold or served at schools meet state and federal requirements which are based on the USDA Dietary Guidelines. We provide students with access to a variety of affordable and appealing foods that meet the health and nutrition needs of students. Cheerful attitudes are the most important ingredient to our daily success.

Our goal is to help your child have a healthy and successful school year. The Student Nutrition Services Department serves an average of 2500 meals daily. The meals served are prepared by a caring and knowledgeable staff that follows state guidelines to ensure that your child receives a safe and nutritious meal. The Findlay City School District participates in the National School Lunch Program. This program sets guidelines from the USDA for the school lunch and breakfast meal patterns which we follow each day. Our “Offer vs Serve” meals are created from menus based on USDA age-appropriate guidelines to ensure nutritional balance and promote healthy lifestyle choices. To view the guidelines set forth for the district, please contact the Student Nutrition Services Director.
