Cafeteria Point of Sale

MealTime Point of Sale

MealTime, now in schools for over 15 years, has been proven in thousands of public and private schools across the nation. MealTime runs on Windows XP/2000 and Vista products, and features a debit account for every student and adult that can be accessed with ID cards, PIN numbers, on-screen roster, name search, or now, Touch & Go finger (biometric) recognition. MealTime has the flexibility to meet your particular needs and, of course, meets all USDA guidelines concerning confidentiality of free and reduced information. If a school has one serving line or 30, MealTimeÔ will provide the same level of accountability and service required. For more detailed information on MealTime Point of Sale, visit the MealTime website.

Internet Payment

MealTime Online

Parents can make deposits directly to their student’s lunch accounts with no staff intervention! Parents can also view what their students have been eating, and when payments were made. Plus, MealTime OnlineÔ can also be used for other school payments, making it a ‘one stop shop’ for parents. For more detailed information on MealTime Online, visit the MealTime website.

Data Consolidation

MealTime Central Office

Mealtime Central Office consolidates data from all cafeterias, saving enormous amounts of time in preparing reports. Access each school directly from the main office to check or change information on customers. MealTime Central even allows the central office to view specific transactions at any school. Again, flexibility is key: any district can consolidate their data, whether or not they have a network connecting the cafeterias to the central office. For more detailed information on MealTime Central Office, visit the MealTime website.

Free and Reduced Application Processing

MealTime Applications

MealTime Applications combines all of the functions of processing free and reduced applications into one easy-to-use program. Process applications, generate letters to parents, automatically select households for verification, and even update MealTime at each campus (via network). Reduces opportunities to incorrectly qualify households and place students on wrong eligibility status. Learn more about MealTime Applications by visiting the MealTime website.

ApplyTime---Submit Free/Reduced Applications OnLine

Parents can now submit free/reduced meal applications online! This will allow applications to flow to the appropriate official more quickly. Even better, applications that are submitted via the web must be complete----ApplyTime will prompt the user to correct any omissions before it can be submitted. Greatly reduces input time while increasing accuracy.

Biographical Information

Jeffrey Schultz has spent over a dozen years in Child Nutrition programs, training in 1988 at Lake Washington School district near Seattle. Following a stint at Colorado Springs District 11, he assumed the Director of Child Nutrition position at Leander School District, just outside of Austin, Texas. During his tenure at Leander, the district experienced explosive growth, adding almost 10,000 students. Results included increased participation, reduced parent and administrative concerns, and consistent financial results. Layout and review of construction plans for new schools, working with maintenance staff on repair of equipment, and managing regular refreshments of the cafeterias also were ongoing.
