Therefore, we provide all students who go through our serving line with a meal even when they do not have sufficient funds to pay for the meal. We understand that some parents don’t always have sufficient funds in their children’s meal account for numerous reasons. When this only involves a couple meals we do not worry too much about it because our parents are great about resolving their account balance within a few days. However, we are seeing a trend of several families not resolving the payment for their students’ lunches in a timely manner. Since our Lackland ISD policy does not provide a charge account for any student meals we are reminding everyone of our school lunch policy and collection procedures. Cost - Currently, a nutritious breakfast meal is provided at a cost of $1.00 and a well-balanced lunch menu is provided at $2.00. Additionally, families that qualify based on income criteria are eligible for free or reduced cost for these meals. Each family is encouraged to review the criteria for this program and complete an application. Please contact our food service manager, Mr. Marcus Rodriguez, in the cafeteria, through email ([email protected]) or phone (201-357-5056) for assistance. Our Food Service web site, www.lacklandisd.net, provides a “Child Nutrition” link to additional information. Student Meal Accounts – We provide student meal accounts as a service to allow parents to pre-pay for meals so their students do not have to provide cash for each meal. The student lunch account may be funded by prepayment with cash or checks locally, or through a credit card charge made on-line. Parents have on-line access to the account status, to monitor the daily balance, see what meals are purchased, and other features to set reminders to help maintain a sufficient balance. Initial Notification of Insufficient Account Balance – LEVEL 1: Students are informed when they go through the serving line (in a respectful manner) when their meal account does not have insufficient funds and are requested to remind their parents. Additionally, we provide a notice to the campus principals and will send a written reminder to the family of their need to resolve the balance in their child’s meal account. For most cases this is all that needs to be done.

LISD Food Service Message Information on Student Meal Accounts
Lackland ISD wants each student to be successful and we believe
that a hungry student my not be performing up to their full
potential. Therefore, we provide all students who go through our
serving line with a meal even when they do not have sufficient funds
to pay for the meal. We understand that some parents don’t always
have sufficient funds in their children’s meal account for numerous
reasons. When this only involves a couple meals we do not worry too
much about it because our parents are great about resolving their
account balance within a few days. However, we are seeing a trend
of several families not resolving the payment for their students’
lunches in a timely manner. Since our Lackland ISD policy does not
provide a charge account for any student meals we are reminding
everyone of our school lunch policy and collection procedures.
Cost - Currently, a nutritious breakfast meal is provided at a cost of
$1.00 and a well-balanced lunch menu is provided at $2.00.
Additionally, families that qualify based on income criteria are
eligible for free or reduced cost for these meals. Each family is
encouraged to review the criteria for this program and complete an

The rookie Stacey Cyberpatriot team members, along with their mentors Capt. Pugh & Lt Porter and Mr. Keller, attended the 2nd annual Mayor’s Cyber
Cup Luncheon on Saturday, February 9th at the headquarters of Valero Energy. 47 of the 55 San Antonio area Cyberpatriot teams were in attendance.
The day started off with a college fair: UTSA, Texas A&M San Antonio, Texas State, & St. Mary’s were some of the area universities represented. The students
gathered information about the various programs and degree offerings in computer science, forensics, and cybersecurity. Speakers at the event included
San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro and Maj. General Suzanne Vautrinot, 24th Air Force Commander.
After the meal, the mayor announced the winner of the event-ITSA New Braunfels Team 2. They will compete as the only Texas team in the Open Division
of Cyberpatriot at the national finals in Maryland next month.

Stacey Faculty takes on Middle School By: Meagan Fleming, Freshman
On Friday, February 8th, the Jr. High Student Council organized a faculty vs. students basketball game in the Stacey gym. It was four ten-minute quarters of Lackland ISD faculty against the four middle school basketball teams. Mrs. Horn was the coach for the faculty team. The final score, with a crazy outcome, was Faculty 48 to Students 44. The game had many laughs and was a lot of fun to watch. The Jr. High
Student Council raised over $170 at the game. Thanks to all who participated!
