📣 Important Update for Meal Payments 📣 We are no longer using EZ Pay for school meal payments. We’re now using School Cafe — a new, easy-to-use system for families! ✅ Visit family.schoolcafe.com or download the School Cafe Family Hub app. With School Cafe, you can: 🔹 Add meal payments 🔹 Apply for free or reduced meals 🔹 Set a la carte restrictions 🔹 Transfer funds between household members 🔹 Manage your child’s meal account all in one place 📌 You’ll need your child’s student ID number to set up your account. You can still find it in EZ Pay, ask your child’s school, or check HAC! MVMS portal is not yet available, please choose BMS until it can be transferred over!#WeAreBenton #MVMSFamily
