Saint Rose of Lima has partnered with Roseville Public Schools to provide our hot lunch program. Prior to COVID-19 and lunches being free for everyone for the last couple years, it was a goal of mine to get Saint Rose of Lima on the Roseville School district's lunch system, which would allow parents to set up automatic payments, track students’ lunch balances and not need to send checks or cash to school.

We are thankful and very excited to say that we are going to be making that transition on November 1st! Some of our Saint Rose families might already have an account set up if there are other students in the district's public schools. If not, click Here to go to Titan through Roseville School District to set up a lunch account.

 Changes coming:

• All money currently in student accounts will be transferred to Titan effective 11/1 (we apologize for the confusion if you have already started to enter money into your child’s Titan account before this changeover occurred. Rest assured, your money is there and will show up for use 11/1).
• Personal Identification Numbers (PINs) will be used at the point of sale that children will be asked to memorize.
• PINs will be distributed later this week with a PIN practice sheet to help the lunch line go smoothly and quickly.
• Please work with your child(ren) to get this memorized.
• School Staff/Lunchroom Volunteers will assist during this process until everyone gets the hang of it.
• Money can be entered online in the Titan Family Portal or, to avoid the $2.60 convenience charge, cash or check can still be sent in to school.
• School menus are also available through the Portal.

Please make sure that you set up an account by November 1st or check your existing account to ensure that all children are represented. We ask that you continue to keep a positive balance in your child(ren)s’ account. Thank you.

It's Not Too Late to Apply for Educational Benefits!

The Application for Educational Benefits (formerly known as Free and Reduced Lunch) can be completed by any family who thinks they may qualify. An eligibility notice letter will arrive via mail or email within 10 business days.

1. Visit TITAN K-12 Family Portal.
2. Click on Apply for Meals Today (log in not required).
3. Follow the instructions to complete your online application.

Additional Information:

• One application needed per family each year. Families who qualified for benefits last school year have until October 18th to apply for uninterrupted benefits this year. After that date, any families who have not applied will lose benefits until their application is completed and approved.
• The income thresholds are higher than in some programs, so many families are surprised to find they DO qualify.

We implore ALL families to fill out the Application for Educational Benefits form if you qualify financially EVERY year. This form determines funding for our school and provides direct benefits for your child and others if you qualify. Benefits include funding for:

• Free or reduced lunch prices for meals offered at school
• Social workers, paraprofessionals, and counselors
• Increased technology
• Early childhood education
• Additional funding for educator professional development

As a reminder,
ALL families who receive Tuition Assistance from Saint Rose
are required to apply each year,
if you meet the income guidelines.

Thank you for your cooperation!
