New Lunch Ordering System Debuts - Place Orders by Wednesday Night for the Following Week
In a time of a global pandemic, not only are we thrilled to welcome students back on campus, but Chef Lori Burgess is enthusiastic about continuing lunch service. We are asking families to pre-order lunch online through Family Portal to help us determine how much food to order and prepare.

Lunch orders need to be placed by 10 p.m. the Wednesday before the start of the next week. For example, if you want to order lunch for your child for Friday, September 17, the order must be placed by 10 p.m. Wednesday, September 9.

Please note that due to supply and snow days, there may be times menu items are substituted.

The following steps outline how to order lunch:
Step 1
Log in to Family Portal.
Step 2
Click on "Student" on the lefthand side.
Step 3
Click on "Lunch" from the dropdown menu.
Step 4
Click the dropdown menu for the date, and select Monday, September 14, to order for the week of September 14-18.
Step 5
This will display the lunch menu for the week of September 14-18.

To begin an order, click "Create Web Order" at the top left.
Step 6
The menu is divided into Children's School (CS) and Middle School (MS) and Upper School (US). Please make sure you order for the division your child attends.

To order a selection, enter the quantity.

Click "Order Items" to complete your order.

*If you have multiple children attending CSS, each child will be listed in this window.
Step 7
To keep track of what you have ordered, return to the lunch menu and your orders will be marked in blue.
How to Add Funds to Your Child's Lunch Account and Check the Balance
Your child's lunch account must have funds in it to buy lunch.

Here are several ways to add funds to the account:

  • Drop off a check to Ann Runte at the front of the Trianon.
  • Mail a check to Ann Runte at 21 Broadmoor Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80906.
  • Pay by telephone with a credit card by calling Ann Runte at (719) 475-9747 or Jody Welch at (719) 434-3544.
  • Pay through Family Portal by clicking "Family Home." At the bottom right is Family Billing. Click "Pay Now" to add funds to the lunch account. UPDATE: Use Firefox or Microsoft Edge if loading funds through Family Portal; Google Chrome is currently not compatible with this process.

Check the balance of your child's lunch account through Family Portal by clicking "Family." Refer to Family Billing, where the lunch balance is listed. A negative balance indicates a credit, while a positive balance indicates amount owed.
