Food Service Program

 

The Food Service Department is proud to serve nutritious breakfasts and lunches every school day. We participate in the National School Lunch Program and meet specific nutrition requirements with every meal offered.

 

Select your school and menu at My School Menus below to use our NEW interactive menu platform.

 

We are still awaiting official guidance on whether meals will be free for all students during the 2025-26 school year.

What we know now:

• Free breakfast and lunch will be provided to all students August 18 – September 30, 2025.

• We encourage all families to fill out the education and meal benefits application below.

 

What qualifies as a free meal?

Pay for À La Carte Items and Second Meals

 

1. Visit Grandville's Meal Magic Family Portal Website.
2. Click "My Account."
3. Enter the email you would like to use.
4. Click "Forgot Passphrase / Unlock Account."
5. A red bar will appear, asking if you would like to register. Click "Yes" and follow the prompts.
6. Once the email is confirmed and you are logged in, click "Add Person."
7. Once added, it will say "Waiting Approval." Your student will be approved shortly after.
8. Once you log back in, you will be able to deposit money and fill out a meal benefits application if needed. 

The Meal Magic Family Portal acts as a debit system. This system is similar to a bank debit card. Each student is assigned a secure account number. Deposits into the account can be made at any time, or checks can be written to Grandville Schools Food Service.

  

Parents can make deposits into their student's lunch accounts using a credit or debit card, as well as monitor the items being purchased by their child and view a current balance online. The student's identification number is required to establish an account, and $20 is the minimum deposit accepted. Please call (616) 254-6404 if you have questions.

 

Low-balance emails can be sent to you. The opt-in procedure is very simple. Once logged into the Meal Magic Family Portal, click on the Notifications button, check the box to indicate you want to receive low-balance reminders, and set a dollar amount indicating when to send notices. If you previously opted out of all email, uncheck that box to access the low-balance email settings.
 

In the event of a Snow Day, the menu may change the day the students return. Typically, food items are prepared in advance, so the menu selections that were to be offered on a Snow Day will be offered the following day. After that, the choices usually return to the published schedule. If your child becomes concerned about menu changes, you may want to plan on packing him or her a lunch from home after a Snow Day.
