September 9, 2021 Update:
Dear Families,
Happy first week of school! We greatly look forward to
serving free breakfast and lunch to all our students again this year, but want to keep you informed of our new vendor for prepaid meal accounts.
As we shared with you last week, we are no longer using MySchoolBucks for student meal accounts.
Our new system, Titan, is now live and is where you can make payments toward your student’s account, find our menus, and more. Please note that
while funds that were on your student’s MySchoolBucks account will automatically roll over to their Titan account, each family must still create a new account and utilize the one time account payment or set up a new recurring payment as preferred. If you wish to send cash or checks with your student, we will accept those in the cafeteria as well.
Here is how to get started with Titan:
1. Go to the
main Titan homepage.
2. Click on “Sign up today!” to begin the process of making a new account.
3. Fill out the required registration information.
4. Verify your account by clicking on the link in the verification email Titan sends after filling out the necessary information.
5. Log in through the portal.
6. Click the + button to link your student to the account.
7. Once you have added your child to your Titan account, you can add money by clicking on + Add Money to Meal Account. You can choose either One Time Account Payment or New Recurring Payment (families who would like to set up a recurring payment must do so in the new system, even if you had a recurring payment scheduled in MySchoolBucks).
If you have any additional questions, please consult
Titan’s FAQ document or call Titan at 916-467-4700 (extension 2).
We appreciate your support and look forward to another great year.
Sincerely,
Patrick McCarty
Director of Food Services

Dear Families,
I hope you are well. While all breakfasts and lunches
are free for all students throughout the entire 2021-2022 school year,
students may still purchase à la carte items using their prepaid meal accounts. However, please note the following change in vendors for the upcoming school year.
Effective immediately,
HCPS is no longer using MySchoolBucks for student meal accounts. Our new system, Titan, is in the final stages of being set up and will be available soon. Please note that
funds that were on your student’s MySchoolBucks account will automatically roll over to their accounts with our new vendor and will be available the first day of school.
If there are no funds on your child’s MySchoolBucks account, they will not be allowed to charge for a la carte items. In the meantime, our School Nutrition staff will continue to accept cash and/or check prepayment for à la carte items.
Once the Titan system is up and running, we will be sure to send you detailed instructions on how to access and use the new portal. Additionally,
our menus for next year will be available online and will be published on each school’s website before the start of the school year.
Thank you for your patience and support as we continue to work to find new and better ways of serving our students and families.
Sincerely,
Patrick McCarty
Director of Food Services
