The Academy is excited to announce the launch of a new automated lunch system that will allow students to progress through the serving line more quickly, automate state reports and letters to parents.
How will this work? Your child will be issued a unique 4-digit PIN number (similiar to your ATM pin number), beginning November 1, your child will simply enter their PIN into the pinpad to progress through the line. That's it!
How can you help? By assisting your child with memorizing their PIN numbers and informing them of the importance of keeping their PIN number a secret. All PIN numbers will be mailed to your home so it is very important that we have your correct address on file. If you have recently moved, please contact the school to update your address.
Wait, there's more.... In January, 2013, parents/guardians will have the ability to monitor your child's lunchtime purchases, make deposits directly into their meal accounts and have an email reminder sent to you when an account balance gets low. Mrs. Aronda Hill, Child Nutrition Administrator, states, "The implementation of the automated lunch system is another step in the right direction towards providing 21st Century advances in our school environment." As we get closer to the November 1 launch, more information will be provided to you. Should you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Hill at (919) 956-5599, ext. 1105.
