MIDDLETON-CROSS PLAINS AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT
SCHOOL NUTRITION-MEALS All children up to the age of 18 are eligible to receive meals starting Tuesday, Sept. 1, however, the program will look different than it has the past few months. Some of the changes include: Meals must be ordered at least a week in advance. All MCPASD students are eligible to receive free breakfast and/or lunch through December 31, the
USDA announced recently. Meals will be dropped off at bus stops or available at the school your child attends for those not eligi-
ble for busing. Meals will be available on weekdays when staff are working. The meals must be ordered through the My Payments Plus website. Deliveries to bus stops will begin at 11:00 a.m. each day. The District doesn't know exactly what time a bus will be at each stop so either a child or guardian will need to be at a bus stop. Transportation staff will be reaching out to families about where bus stops will be located. If a child's bus stop is their driveway, a child or guardian should be at the end of the driveway to pick up the meal. For those who walk to school, students will need to go to the school they attend to pick up the meal at the front of the building. Either a child or guardian can pick up the meal between 11 a.m. and noon on weekdays. Here is the process for ordering meals: Step 1: Set up your My Payments Plus account by going to the MPP welcome link.
Step 2: Make payment to your child's lunch account. Step 3: Click on Events & Activities-Weekly Meal Selection. Each student's name will appear. Select a student and add to cart. Make meal choices by filling in the form. Then click Save. Select next student and follow the same steps. Step 4: Proceed to checkout. Balance should be $0.00 for everyone at this point. Step 5: Click pay for order. Your receipt will be $0.00. Families who need to complete a Free & Reduced Lunch application should do so online.
