  • Please call in the morning if your child will be late or absent so that we can have an accurate attendance report and lunch order for the day. Please discuss after-school arrangements with your child ahead of time to help alleviate interruptions and messages given during the school day.

 

SKYWARD FAMILY ACCESS: Registration and student info, grades, lunch account balances, etc. To sign up or log in, visit https://rcas.org/parents/parent-resources/

 

  • To set up online lunch payments, you will need your child’s “Other ID”, which can be found under Student Info in your Family Access account. You can make one-time payments to Food Service or set up recurring payments. This is safer and more efficient than sending money to school with your child! Free/Reduced lunch applications and guidelines are also available online. The Free/Reduced lunch program is a great option to help families make ends meet!
