The Elizabethtown Area School District uses SchoolCafé as its online meal management system. SchoolCafé provides families with a convenient and secure way to manage student meal accounts, make online payments, monitor purchases, and apply for free and reduced-price meals.

With a SchoolCafé account, families can:

  • Add funds to student meal accounts
  • View meal purchases and account balances
  • Receive low-balance notifications
  • Apply for free and reduced-price meals
  • Access meal and nutritional information
  • Manage student meal account preferences

Please note that SchoolCafé is used exclusively for meal-related services. SchoolPay remains the District's platform for school fees, athletic fees, and other student payments.

Getting Started

To create a SchoolCafé account, you will need your student's ID number, which can be found on your child's student identification card or through the Community Portal.
