Food Services

As of the 2024-2025 school year, Norton's Food Service Department is proud to be a Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) school, which allows us to provide free breakfast and lunch to all students. This ensures that every child has access to nutritious meals each day. Our goal is to promote health, well-being, and academic success by removing barriers to healthy eating. Join us in our commitment to fueling learning and fostering a positive school environment for every student!

A la carte items will still be available for purchase. We encourage you to look into PaySchools Central that provides all parents in our district an easy way to manage their child’s lunch account. This can all be done in the convenience of your own home through an easy-to-use online portal: www.payschoolscentral.com

Pay Schools Central

Using www.payschoolscentral.com you will be able to deposit money into an account at your convenience, check your child’s balance, and many other features. Each child in your family can be set up on the same account. If you decide to put money on your child’s account, there is an internet convenience fee of 3.9% to the parent per transaction or $1.75 per transaction for ACH check. Once the money is put on the account, it typically appears in your child’s account in less than 24 hours.

If you choose not to use Pay Schools Central for credit card transactions, the district continues to accept cash and checks at each school cafeteria.

There is a Pay Schools Central Mobile App that provides the ability to make payments to replenish lunch accounts and view purchase history. The Pay Schools Central mobile app is a free download and is available for iOS (Apple) and Android devices.

Please click the icon below to create your account, complete a Free or Reduced form, receive updates on your student's account balance, and/or make prepayments to your child's meal account online!
