FLSD Food Service Update

Account information – All remaining money (positive and negative) on accounts will roll over to the next school year.  If you have a Senior that has remaining money on their account, complete this survey to get reimbursed, move remaining money to a siblings account or you can donate to help other students.  Go to the Food Service page for more information.  If your senior has money left on their account and you do not contact Mrs. Baumann via the survey or phone call, the remaining money will be put on a siblings account or the donation account if no sibling.  If seniors have $5.00 or less the cashier can refund money as long as they have money in their register.  If you complete or have already completed the survey, Mrs. Baumann will turn in the paperwork to the treasurer’s office at the end of the year.

Negative accounts – must be paid now.  Accounts that are left with a negative balance will remain on the students account.  Keep in mind that any accounts that are not taken care of will eventually be added to the school fees owed.    

Please contact Mrs. Baumann if you have any questions 440-965-4255 ext. 3097  / Jbaumann@firelandsschools.org
