Charge Policy
Leander ISD understands situations may arise that prevent students from having available funds to purchase a meal. Because of this, the district allowed a grace period so that students could continue to enjoy a hot meal until funds could be deposited. This grace period was the equivalent of the cost of five lunch meals, or $15 for elementary students and $16 for middle and high school students.
Once a student had reached the negative balance of either $15 for elementary students or $16 for middle and high school students, the district would provide a low-cost meal to the student until funds were replenished.
If there is a financial need, please consider applying for the free or reduced-price meal program by visiting My School Bucks, downloading a paper application under Forms and Applications below, or picking up a paper application at any campus or the Child Nutrition Services office.
If you have any questions regarding Child Nutrition Services, the charge policy or the free or reduced-price meal program, please call 512-570-0670, or use our online communication tool, Let’s Talk!
