SchoolCafe- Account Setup

Managing Your Student’s Account

Every student is provided with a student identification number (Student ID#) from the school. This ID# is specific to the student and will have for their entire UMASD school years (K-12th grade) and for three years after they graduate. Please keep this number safe, confidential, and never to be shared with a fellow student. This number is used for all food service accounts including meal ordering, balances, applications, restrictions, and so much for the school as well. 

Options for payment:

1. Cash can be provided to the student and given to a food service staff member at the register. No fee associated. **Debit/credit cards and Apple pay are not accepted at the school regsiter** 

2. Checks addressed to "Food Services UMASD" are also accepted at the registered or mailed to Food Services UMASD at 450 Keebler Road, KOP, PA, 19406. No fee associated. For the youngest students, put the check in an envelope with "Food Service" written on it, so the classroom teacher will know to send it to the cafeteria.

3. SchoolCafe.com is a digital platform we use as well. Every student is automatically set up with an account using their student ID#. Parents/Guardians can also set up an account as well to view live menus, manage balances (negative and positive), apply certain menu item restrictions and or notifications, as well as apply for Free/Reduced Meals.
