A well-balanced lunch is served daily in each of the district's six schools. As mandated by the National School Lunch Program, each lunch offered includes five components: a protein source, bread, a vegetable, a fruit, and eight ounces of milk. There is a choice of entrees that are available each day, including both hot and cold selections. There are also vegetable choices, a variety of fruits and fruit juices to choose from, a "dessert" item, and a variety of cold milks. While at least five components are offered each day, your child may choose as little as three foods to complete a meal.
Free and reduced lunch programs are available for low-income families, which adheres to the National Lunch Program guidelines. Click here for more information. Applications for applying for these benefits are mailed to every student in their packets with the new school year information and are also available in the school office or by contacting Jenelle Himmelreich, Food Service Director at 610-775-5083 ext. 5554.

Point of Sale Feature
Governor Mifflin School District has a online option that allows you to monitor your children’s lunchtime expenditures and make payments in their accounts with ACH bank checking and savings accounts. It gives you the capability to view what your children have eaten over the last 30 days. Each child’s account statement is updated nightly so that the information and payments are current the following day.
In order to take advantage of this new feature you will need to log onto www.myschoolaccount.com and provide your student’s ID number and birthdate. After that, you will be able to view their detailed statement.
All GovernorMifflinSchool District’s schools have FSS® POSitiveID System in their cafeterias. This technology allows us to provide debit accounts for purchases, and increases the speed of food service to students so they have more time to eat and converse. Parents enjoy the convenience of prepaying for their child’s purchases at whatever level they choose. The FSS® POSitiveID System also eliminates the overt identification of students who are eligible for free or reduced meal benefits.
The FSS® POSitiveID System allows you to pay in advance for meals and/or A la Carte items. Students still have the option to pay cash on a daily basis. We urge you to take full advantage of this system by placing money into your child’s account on a weekly, monthly, or annual basis. You choose the amount you want to deposit. Any money not spent by the end of school will be available for your child’s use the following school year.
