We are reaching out to inform you of an important update regarding our cafeteria account system. Starting on November 11, 2024, we will resume sending automatic notifications for low lunch account balances via text and email to parents and guardians. The delayed resumption of notifications for the current school year was due to our conversion from RealTime SIS to Oncourse SIS for student information management transition to the transition to new system for our cafeteria Point of Sale (POS). These updates were necessary to improve overall functionality and efficiency, ensuring a more seamless experience for our students and staff. Moving forward, you will receive alerts when your child’s lunch account balance falls below a certain threshold. These notifications are designed to help you stay informed and ensure that your child always has funds available for meals. To verify your child’s current available lunch account balance and to make electronic payments, please log onto your child’s PaySchools account: https://payschoolscentral.com/. Or you may make a payment using a check or cash and send it into the school directly. If you need to make arrangements to spread out the payment of accumulated charges, please contact Sharon Yarosz at the Frankford BOE office at 973-948-3727 ext: 208 or yaroszs@frankfordschool.org. If you have any questions or need assistance with your child's lunch account, please do not hesitate to reach out to the cafeteria at cafeteria@frankfordschool.org or 973-948-3727 ext: 220. Thank you for your attention to this matter and understanding as we transition our internal systems. Warm regards, Christopher M. Lessard School Business Administrator/ Board Secretary
