Make A Payment

Lunch Program

Union students have the option to purchase a hot lunch in the school cafeteria or bring their lunch. Cashiers at each site can accept cash or check pre-payments at the register if not using the credit/debit option through MySchoolBucks. Please review the district charge policy.

Breakfast Program

Breakfast, the most important meal of the day, is usually the meal that most people skip. Union students have the option to purchase breakfast at school to jumpstart their brain to focus and learn.

There are many advantages to eating breakfast at school:

It saves time on hectic mornings when trying to rush out the door for school
School breakfast is nutritious and affordable
While the options provided are foods that kids like such as pancakes, cereal and breakfast sandwiches, these options are whole-grain and low-sugar
