End of Year Lunch Account Information
Lunch Account Reminder
Dear Parents,
As the school year winds down, we would like parents to check the balance(s) on their student(s)
lunch accounts. If an account is negative, please make a payment. We ask that no account is left
negative over the summer.
If you have a graduating Senior, you can request a refund or balance transfer the Monday after
graduation. Please cancel the auto deposit function on your Seniors lunch account to prevent a
payment from posting after it is cleared. There is a separate notification in your High School
newsletter for Seniors.
If you have not received an email from us this school year, please make sure the school has the most
current email address on file.
MAKING DEPOSITS
SETTING UP AN ONLINE ACCOUNT will allow you to make deposits, view the account,
set reminders and add an auto-deposit option if preferred.
*EPS now partners with SchoolPay for student lunch accounts. To add funds, go to
www.schoolpay.com and log into to your user account. If you do not yet have a
SchoolPay account, a link can be found on the EPS website under the Parents tab, select
Lunch then scroll down to Lunch Account Portal for the instructions link.
MAIL CHECKS payable to EPS, that include your student name and student ID Number to
EPS Food Service, 1401 Veterans Drive, Elkhorn, NE 68022
SEND LUNCH MONEY WITH YOUR STUDENT TO SCHOOL, include your student name
and student ID number preferably in an envelope for elementary students to give to their
teacher.
Any funds that are currently on a student account will remain on their account and carry over year to
year while the student remains in the Elkhorn School District.

2022-2023 Online Registration Reminder
For the upcoming school year, EPS will again utilize an online registration system that will allow parents of K-12 students to log in and update information and complete all Back-to-School documents. As a reminder, to use this feature, parents/guardians will need to have a parent access account in PowerSchool.
If you do not already have a parent access account, please follow this link for directions on how to create an account. However, this is a preparation step, and you will not be able to complete the online registration process until July. An email will be sent to the primary PowerSchool account email address when online registration is available.
If you have an account created but need to add additional students, please follow this link for directions on doing so: https://bit.ly/2wDNJuT.
If you have any questions or need assistance setting up your account, please contact your building secretary.

From our School Nurse
A Note from the Nurse…
Spring can often worsen symptoms of allergies and asthma. Please monitor your student and let us know if you have any additional concerns that would necessitate an adjustment to their allergy/asthma action plan.
On fun and field days be sure to apply sunscreen to your student before they come to school.
✶✷ It’s time to start scheduling your student’s school and sports physicals!
Students who are entering Kindergarten or who are new students from out of state will need to submit a physical exam and vision exam (including a test for strabismus, amblyopia, and acuity) dated after February 17, 2022, as well as a current immunization record including the Kindergarten booster shots. Here is the Summary of the School Immunization Rules and Regulations
Forms can be uploaded to PowerSchool during the registration process in August but please click “Actual Size” or use the scan feature when uploading with a smartphone.
***As we are nearing the end of the school year--if your student has medication in the office, please be sure to pick it up on the last day of school.***
Have a fantastic summer!
