The Tussey Mountain School District may also be eligible for additional state and/or federal dollars based on the number of students eligible to participate in the program, which enhances the district’s ability to fund educational programs. Therefore, the free/reduced program can be beneficial to everyone in the school district. CAFETERIA NOTES It is very important that you check your child’s account balance when you receive statements from the cafeteria. Balances due could be an indication that their status is incorrect in the computer system. It is your responsibility to call the Cafeteria Office within 30-days to correct their account. Any charges to student accounts are the responsibility of the parent/ Guardian. Student accounts should always reflect a positive balance. WE OPERATE ON A DEBIT SYSTEM, NOT A CREDIT SYSTEM! Students whose accounts are overdrawn will not receive report cards until balances are paid in full!
