Jennie K. Kolter Elementary School

LUNCH & BREAKFAST

These may be paid for at the time of purchase with cash.  Weekly or monthly lunch cards may be purchased from the office in the mornings.  Payment must be in cash as the Food Services Department of HISD cannot accept checks.  The card is kept at school by the Lunchroom Cashier.  If lunch cards are purchased, students may choose the days they wish to use them.  For example, a lunch card purchased in advance for 5 days could be used consecutively or over several weeks or months.  The prepaid lunch card is the best and easiest system for the student, parent, and school personnel.  We encourage all parents to utilize the prepaid lunch card to eliminate lost lunch money or lunch money used for buying snacks. Lunch menus go home monthly.

 If money is needed for lunch, it should be borrowed from the office, not from another student.  If the money is not repaid promptly, the student may not borrow more money until his/her debt is paid.
