How can I apply for free and reduced lunch?
Apply Online for Meal Benefits
It is important for families to apply for meal assistance. This is what helps determine how much funding the school district gets for programs that help children, families, teachers and administrators.
Three Reasons To Apply For Free & Reduced School Meals
You can now apply on-line for your children to receive free and reduced price school meals. Your application will be sent from a secure website directly to Reynoldsburg City Schools. Your personal information remains confidential and secure. Once your application has been received, your eligibility will instantly be determined.
The online application has been designed to make it easy for you to know exactly what information you will need to guide you through the process.
TO APPLY:
Simply go to www.PayschoolsCentral.com
You will have to click the Register link.
Once your account is set up, you will need to know the six digit Student ID number for each child on the application. This ID number is found in Powerschool under your parent portal log-in. Additionally, many of the students know their ID number and may be able to provide that to you. If you are unable to locate this ID number through one of the methods listed, please feel free to call your child’s school or the Food Service office at 614-501-1030.
The online application may be completed on a laptop, desktop computer or mobile device.
