Parents of Fort Bragg students have a new way to pay for their child's meals. The K12 Payment Center was suspended as of April 4. Starting April 18, parents can now use the TITAN Family Portal to pay for student meals.
Click on the Accounts and Payments tab above for more information.
We offer budget-friendly prices and payment methods to feed your child during the day.
#1 – Pay online with the TITAN Family portal. You pay with a credit card at linqconnect.com. There is a $2.60 service charge per transaction. You can:
#2 - Drop off payment at your school’s cafeteria. There is no service fee for this option.
#3 - Send payment to school with your child. Place it in a sealed envelope with the child’s name and amount of money enclosed clearly written on the outside of the envelope. There is no service fee for this option.
Please be advised that payments are due at the time of purchase. Sponsors, guardians and families are responsible for child purchases.
When writing checks for school meals:
If a check is returned due to insufficient funds, the school will notify the parent. A service charge will be added to the check total. The parent/sponsor will make cash payment to the School Meals Program. The privilege to use checks will be suspended until the delinquent check and service charge are paid in full.
Qualified child nutrition professionals provide students with access to a variety of affordable, nutritious and appealing foods that meet the health and nutrition needs of students.
Does your student have a food allergy? If so, please coordinate with the school nurse.
