Lunch

K12 Lunch System

Great News! Dealing with your children’s lunch money just got a lot easier. You can now add money to your child’s meal account, transfer funds, and see their cafeteria purchase history all securely online from your computer, tablet or smartphone!

UCA will no longer pre-order lunches. What this means is students will need to have money on their lunch account in order to receive lunch. The lunch choices are remaining the same, but the student will be able to choose that day what to eat.

If you have already been using K-12 with us there is nothing you need to do as far as set up. Simply log-in and choose "Meal Payment" (it has a piggy bank next to it) this is where you will add money to each child's account to ensure they can come get lunch. This applies to all students.

With K12PaymentCenter the chances of lunch money getting lost or stolen significantly decreases. You can schedule recurring payments, set up low balance notifications, and transfer funds from one child to another. It will also save your payment history and receipts so you can refer back at any time. You will have access to your child’s account 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

How Do You Get Started? It’s simple!

  • Go to K12PaymentCenter.com from your web browser
  • First time users click “Sign Up” then select your state and district from the drop-down lists
    • (Choose Uwharrie Charter Academy)
  • Fill in your information to set up the account
  • Click “Manage Students” to add your student(s) with their last name and student ID number
     
Once you create your account and add your students, you will have access to your student’s meal account balance and cafeteria purchase history for FREE! When making meal account payment there is a small convenience fee per transaction (not per child) to cover payment processing.
