Food Services

The Mansfield Public Schools provide food services for students in each of our school cafeterias.

We are excited to share that we have a school lunch software system that makes it easy to manage your child's lunch account. Visit our LINQ Connect Information Page for helpful resources!

Please note students must have cash or a positive balance on their account in order to buy snacks (at MMS and EOS), an extra entree, or an extra meal.  Students will still be allowed to charge one complete breakfast and lunch each day if necessary.
