View This Week's Lunch Menus
Upper Arlington Schools uses a digital menu system that offers families more information about the meals we're serving students, including nutritional and allergy information. You can also digitally create meals with your student to help them make healthy choices. You can view the elementary and middle school menus by accessing the webpage below and selecting your child's school in the pulldown menu.
Prepay for Your Student's Meals
Families can prepay for student meals by adding money to their account online through SPS EZPay, or by delivering a check payable to Upper Arlington City Schools to the cook at your child's school. Please note that any families of students who are new to the district for the upcoming school year will be able to sign up for SPS EZPay beginning on August 1.
Monitor Your Student's Account
Families can access Linq Connect to monitor their student's meal account usage in more detail — including viewing current balance and purchase history, setting spending limits and transferring money between student accounts. Families can also access elementary and middle school lunch menus via Linq Connect. For instructions on how to set up an account, please the Linq family guide.
