Point of Service - Nutrikids
Each student has their own personal lunchroom account based on their current student ID#. Students can access their accounts on the pin pads located at every register. The meal purchasing system is a pre-payment system. You or your child may deposit money on their account at their school or on-line using a secure, fast and convenient method to your children's school meal accounts at Nutrikids.com. In order to use the online prepayment service, a small convenience fee for each transaction will be assessed to cover the bank fees. The convenience fee is $1.75 per deposit transaction. Parents placing money into multiple meal accounts will only be assessed the $1.75 fee once per deposit transaction. Caldwell School District will not profit from the use of this site. To offset the cost of this convenience fee, the District Food Service Department will provide one FREE meal for your son or daughter for every 20 meals purchased per student per transaction.
You can also access your children's current account balances and review what your children have been buying for their meals while at school. So no more worries about whether or not there is money on your child's account.
