Pre-Payment Options, Refunds & Transfers
Pre-Payment Options
Please take advantage of the options to prepay your student's meal accounts. Prepaid meal accounts help the lunch lines go faster and give students more time to eat, relax, and play. It also gives you the peace of mind of not having to worry about looking for lunch money every day or worry that it might get lost, stolen, or used for other things other than lunch.
Payment Options
Online payments are a simple, safe, and secure way to make payments to your students account 24 hours a day at your convenience.

Refunds & Transfers
How do I get a refund if my student has graduated or transfers away from the district?
If the amount of positive balance is small enough (less than $25.00), the cafeteria cashiers can issue refunds upon presentation of a parental note. If the amount is too great (more than $25) to refund out of the cashier drawer (or if it is after the school year is over), the parent can contact Alicia Dunlap, Accounts Payable at the School Nutrition office at 336-242-5543. Any money left in the student's account 30 days after withdrawal or graduating will resort back to the Davidson County School account. A refund request is available to download and print below.
What happens to my student's lunch account balance when they transfer between schools in the district?
Once the school data manager at the new school enrolls the transferred student, the student's lunch account (including any account balance they may have) will automatically transfer to the student's new school cafeteria within 24 hours.
This applies to transfers during the school year, but also applies to transfers that happen over the summer due to students graduating from Elementary, Middle, or High schools.
