*** Details on setting up an Online Account to Pre-Pay your child's lunch are available by clicking the link on the left.***

Students attending the Franklin Public Schools may pay for lunch in one of three ways:

1) Using Cash.

2) Pre-paying via check. Please make a check payable to the "Franklin School Lunch Program," for whatever amount you chose, and send it in to school with your child. PLEASE PUT YOUR CHILD'S FULL NAME IN THE MEMO LINE ON THE CHECK.

3) Pre-pay online using a credit card or PayPal. Please click to the left for details on this convenient new way to pay via MyNutriKids.com. MyNutriKids.com allows you to see your child's current balance, view a list of their lunch transactions for the previous 30 days, and even activate a "low balance alert" system that will send you an email every time your child's balance drops below a pre-determined level you choose!

In order to set up an account for your child(ren) you must know his/her ID number. This is same 7-digit number that the students use to log in to the school's computer system. It is assigned to them when they enroll in the Franklin Public schools, and remains the same from Kindergarten through 12th grade. If your child is entering 4th grade or higher they should already know their number, as they were required to enter it to purchase lunch last year. Children entering grades K - 2, or or those needing accomodations will be provided with a barcode card to scan in the lunch line. If you do not know your child's ID number, you can get it by calling your school's secretary, or call the Food Service Office at 508-541-2100 x 3039 from 8 am till 2 pm on school days. If your student is returning to FHS, their ID number is on their student ID, next to the barcode.

(Please be aware that Mynutrikids.com charges a $1.75 fee each time you deposit money onto your child's account. This $1.75 fee is the same regardless of the amount you enter, and whether you are adding money to one account or multiple accounts.)

If your student has a prepaid account, their balance at the end of the year will carry over to the following school year. Their balance will stay with them even if they change schools within the Franklin district. If you are planning to move your child out of the Franklin Public Schools, or if your child is in 12th grade, please be aware that we cannot give refunds of unused balances. If your child has a remaining balance and will be leaving the Franklin Schools, you (the parent) can request that we transfer the remaining balance to another student - for example, we could transfer a remaining balance of a graduating senior to a younger sibling or friend. However, we cannot refund the money to you.

*** Frequently asked question *** When viewing your child's transaction history on the Mynutrikids.com website, the term "non-reim lunch" refers to a second lunch your child has purchased on the same day. Many students purchase "double lunch." The second of the two lunches is shown as a non-reimbursable (non-reim) lunch, because we have to account for it differently when reporting to the state the number of student lunches we have sold each day.
