[QUOTE="SRL, post: 93832, member: 701"] wyntersgrace, your system sounds much more advanced than ours, which already seemed archaic when they implemented it. Ours was supposed to be a fingerprint scan but it has never worked properly so the kids input a password instead. Plus there were parents that weren't comfortable with the school having a digital scan of their student's fingerprint. Parents can only pay by cash or check (no debit or credit cards) and instead of making it easy on the kids and putting the drop box conveniently located near the gym where all kids enter, they have it by the cafeteria where kids have to go out of their way in the morning to make the deposit. We never get notices of when the account is running low and (get this) the default meal if your account dips below zero and they need to "loan" you a meal is peanut butter and saltines. Yup, as districts throughout the nation ban PB, ours dishes it up by default. I do like to be able to see what's been purchased and easy child likes not having to carry money every day, but the system definitely leaves much to be desired. [/QUOTE]
