Payment & Refund Options

  • Payments

    Payments can be sent in with your child or dropped off at the office of your child's school. Please send your payment in an envelope with your child's name, homeroom, student ID #, & amount written on the outside. Cash is accepted; however, we recommend payment by check.

    Cash and check payments are also accepted at the cash register in each cafeteria.

    If paying by check: Please write your child's name & student ID number in the "memo" section so that it will be properly credited to her/his account. Checks should be made out to "Southern Lehigh Cafeteria." 
    Cafeteria meal payments may also be made online at www.EZSchoolPay.com.  In addition to adding money to your child’s lunch account with a Visa or Mastercard, you may also view your child’s transactions for the past 30 days. There is no cost invloved with looking at your child's transaction history. 

    Please remember to write your child’s student ID # on the memo line; post-dated checks are not accepted; returned checks are subject to a $15.00 fee.
