Payment Options
- All students pay for their lunch with a BC-issued ID card connected to their MyMealtime account.
- BCHS does not accept payment at the point of sale nor give change.
- Money can be deposited into the MyMealtime account via either of these 2 methods:
Deposit money online via MyMealTime
MyMealTime is a point-of-sale system in which your account can be “loaded” with money and used as needed to purchase food in the cafeteria at lunch and before and after school. We encourage you to use this system. It also tracks purchases and gives low-balance warnings.
Deposit Cash or Check in the dropbox
Submit cash or check (payable to Bishop Chatard) in an envelope with the student’s name and six-digit ID number. Place in the dropbox outside the Cafeteria office (bottom of the stairs, Door #10) or mail (checks only) to: Bishop Chatard, Attn: Michael Dlugosz, 5885 Crittenden Ave, Indianapolis, IN 46220. Please do not mail cash. This money will be credited to the student’s MyMealTime account. Allow 24 hours for processing.
