This holiday season, consider ways to help MCPS students pay off their student lunch debt. In FY2024, “Dine with Dignity seeks to raise $170,000 to settle a fraction of the more than $700,000 unpaid meal debt accrued by MCPS students.”

Let them know that you would like to donate the balance of your child(ren)’s account.

This is a little strange. So, MCPS gets the donation now to payoff the “debt”, then when FARMS comes in, do they get that too? This does not appear to be helping the child at all. Show me where I’m wrong please.
