School Lunchlunch

Duval County's goal is to enhance school performance by providing nutritious meals and promoting the importance of healthy eating. The cost of lunch has increased to $1.60

Families can qualify for free or reduced priced meals depending on household income and family size.  Please complete the Free and Reduced Price Meal Application form to see if your family qualifies.  

mylunchmoney.comWhat is MyLunchMoney.com?
MyLunchMoney.com is a convenient and easy to use credit card prepayment system that allows parents to add money to their child's meal account at the school he/she attends.

How does it work?
When the child goes through the food service line the money for his/her meal is deducted from the account balance, eliminating the need to send money each day for lunch or breakfast. Parents are able to set recurring payments based on a low balance amount that they specify. For additional information, call the Food Service Office at (904) 732-5117
