 The
Waterford School District Food and Nutrition Services Department uses the
computerized point of sale system called Meal Magic. An
account is established for every student in the district using
their Student Identification Number. Each account contains their
photo, class, grade, account balance along with their ID number.
Students at the secondary level enter their student identification
number on a pin-pad to make purchases and deposits. At the
elementary level food service personnel enters the information
for them.
Parents have online access to the students’ accounts through
SendMoneyToSchool.com which allows them to deposit money in their
accounts, check account balances and view the purchase history.
There is a $1.00 minimum deposit. All
deposits made online at
SendMoneyToSchool.com will be credited to accounts within one business day. Occasional
processing delays could occur due to circumstances beyond our
control.

Any funds remaining on your child's account at the close of the
year will remain on their account and be available next school
year even if your child transfers to a new school in the
Waterford School District. Negative account balances also transfer to the next school year.
Students who have negative meal account balances will not
be able to receive their schedules for the next school year. Please pay
negative account balances prior to the school year end.
If a
student is leaving the district, it is the parent’s
responsibility to check the student’s Meal Magic account. If
there is a negative balance, payment can be made with check or
cash to the school kitchen or by credit card on
SendMoneyToSchool.com. If the student has a positive balance, you may have the balance
transferred to an account of another child who is remaining in
the district or request a refund check. Please contact the
Food & Nutrition Services Office at 248.682.0394 or
bradyr01@wsdmi.org for
assistance.
If you would like to recieve an email notification when your
child's account balance reaches $5.00 or lower, please send your
