Check Policy
The School Lunch Program gladly accepts checks as payment for student meal accounts. Check payments that are returned for any reason (including, but not limited to, non-sufficient funds, stop payment requests or a closed account) will result in:
- A $35.00 Returned Check Fee.
- You will receive a certified letter and email regarding your check payment with instruction for repayment.
- May result in the referral of the debt to the Kenton County Attorney's office for collection.
- May result in the suspension of the payer's ability to submit future payments by personal check.
For questions regarding this procedure or to make arrangements to resolve a returned payment please contact Laura Hatfield at 859-392-1500 or
