Meal Accounts
The district uses a computerized accounting system in the cafeterias. During student registration, students are assigned a code for their meal account. This code stays with the student as long as they are a student in the Mehlville School District. Student meal account codes should be kept confidential.
Meal account deposits
Funds can be deposited into student meal accounts online through MySchoolBucks or sent to school with students. If you send cash or a check made payable to the school or Mehlville School District, place the funds in a sealed envelope with the student's name and "meal account funds" on the front.
Learn more about MySchoolBucks and get instructions for setting up your account.
Meal account restrictions
Several schools offer a la carte items not included with the meal. Bottled water, cookies, chips, extra milk/juice and extra entrees are an additional cost. To purchase a la carte items, a student must have adequate funds in their account. Student meal accounts can be blocked from making purchases (meals and/or a la carte). A daily spending limit can also be placed on an account. To place restrictions on a student’s meal account, contact the school’s café manager or School Food and Nutrition Services at 314-467-5250.
