Only one application is needed if you have students at multiple schools. 

Cash or check made out to 'Peoria Lunch Fund' is always accepted in your student's cafeteria.

If you would like to fund your student's account by credit card, you can set up an online account through MySchoolBucks It is a safe, secure, accurate and convenient way to pay for meals.
