Dear Parent of ^(first_name)^(last_name),

This notice is to inform you that your child's lunch account may require attention. According to our records your child is not eligible to receive Free Lunch. If your child qualifies for Reduced Lunch, they must pay $0.25 per lunch. If they are not eligible for Free or Reduced Lunch, they must pay $1.50 per per Lunch.  If you owe money for school lunches, please make sure to settle the bill at your earliest convenience. You may bring a check or cash to the Office of Student Services on the 5th floor. The money may be delivered either by you or your child.

If you know that your child consistently eats hot lunch we highly recommend that you bring in a deposit for the semester.  A deposit of $75 should cover your child for one semester.  

The information below shows your child's meal status and their account balance.

Student Name: ^(First_Name)^(Last_Name)

Lunch Status: ^(LunchStatus)

Balance as of ^[date]: ^(Balance1)

*If your lunch status is FREE but you still have a balance this is because you did not submit your lunch form on time. Starting on October 1st, all students who did not have free lunch status were required to pay for their meals, regardless of whether their status changed later in the semester.

For future reference, the online POWERSCHOOL computer system can provide you with your lunch account balance information at any time. You will need the following information:

Thank you so much for your prompt attention to this matter.  If you have any questions of concerns please feel free to call the Office of Student Services and ask to speak with Sarah Bartges-Ohana 212-666-1278.

Sincerely,

The Office of Student Services
