Food service now accepting online payments for student, staff meals

Ballard County Schools has partnered with a new online payment portal where parents can pay cafeteria bills, view student balances and cafeteria purchases, and even make online automatic payments.

The website is www.myschoolbucks.com, To use the system, parents or guardians must establish a user name and password. Next, a confirmation will be sent to an existing e-mail account. There is an operational cost of $2 for each payment, charged by the banking system associated with this program. However, parents may still pay by check or cash as well.

For more information on the system, please click below or contact school nutrition director Amber Hayes at 665-8400, ext. 2530, or email [email protected].
Student insurance opportunities
The Ballard County Board of Education purchases basic and catastrophic accident insurance coverage for all district students, which is in force during school time and for school-sponsored activities. Complete information about this coverage may be found in the Code of Behavioral Expectations. 
 
Accidents must be reported to the school as soon as possible after they occur. Any student who is injured at school or during a school-sponsored activity should contact the secretary in his/her building. The secretary will have student accident reports and the insurance packet. Additional 24-hour coverage may be purchased for a fee; forms were sent home with students at the beginning of the school year.
