Royals heading through the lunch line today found a quieter tray — campus food service has removed the school lunch PIN system used at the register.
According to cafeteria staff, the PIN pads are offline while the district transitions checkout. Students should still bring their student ID or be prepared to confirm their name and lunch number with an adult at the register.
Administration says the change is meant to speed up lines and cut down on shared PIN misuse. Full guidance for free and reduced meal accounts will be posted to the family portal and sent in a ParentLink message this week.
Questions about meal balances or account access can go to the main office or the cafeteria manager during lunch periods. Updates will run on this page as more details land.
