Child Nutrition Services

 

Welcome to Child Nutrition Services!

 

We continue to experience supply chain shortages for various food and paper items.
 
One free breakfast and lunch will be available to all students
during the 2024-25 school year!
 
2024-25 Meal Service
One free breakfast will be available before school and/or during the students’ break time. One free lunch will be available during the students’ scheduled lunch time. Meals will be pre-plated with a main entrée, side items, fresh fruits and vegetables. Students will be able to select their choice of milk and/or juice.
In an effort to speed up the lines, Middle and High School students are encouraged to bring their student ID with them to receive a breakfast and/or lunch or to purchase a la carte snack and beverage items. A la carte snack items cannot be charged to a student’s meal account if the account balance is $0 or negative.
Child Nutrition Services is cashless. Please ensure your student has a positive balance on their meal account to purchase a la carte snack and beverage items. If a student uses cash to purchase snack items, change will not be given. The remaining funds will be added to the student’s meal account.
 
LINQ Connect
We’re excited to inform you that our meal payments portal, TITAN Family Portal, has upgraded to LINQ Connect. There’s no need to change your username and password, all your information has already been transferred to the new app. 
 
Here are some exciting upgrades to expect: 
• A simple, fresh look to allow for better accessibility 
• An interactive dashboard to view all family members in one profile
• A resource center to access help guides
• Streamlined menus required you to click less to do more 
 
Visit your app store and find “LINQ Connect”, available in the Google Play Store now and the Apple store (available soon), to download the new app and enjoy these new features. Just log in with your existing username and password. If you use a browser, visit LINQConnect.com to log in. If you don’t use our online meal (and/or school fees) payments portal, LINQ Connect allows you to set up one-time or recurring payments for your student’s meal. You can also view previous transactions, set spending limits, transfer funds between students, set low balance notifications, and more. It’s an easy way to manage meal payments without the hassle of sending cash.
 

If you have any questions, please contact our office at (310) 937-1260.
