Food Services

Meals also meet the requirements of the USDA National School Lunch Program. District 63 partners with OrganicLife to provide nutritious food options for our students at breakfast and lunch.
Paying for Meals The easiest way to pay for meals is online using your child's PushCoin account. If you don't have an account, see instructions on how to set one up. Parents can also submit payment to the school office, which will apply it to the student’s account.
