St. Joseph's School offers before- and after-school care for our students in grades K-8.  Please click here for After Hour Kid Power hours and policies, and click here to register. .  

St. Joe’s works with District 197 for our school lunch program.  In order for your child to be eligible to receive hot lunch or milk at school, you will need register with District 197’s meal service, My Payments Plus.   My Payments Plus is a convenient way to monitor your child’s lunch activity and add money to their account.

New students (including Kindergarten) need to have a District/Student ID in order to sign up to use My Payments Plus.  This information is typically not provided to St. Joseph's School from the District until mid-to-late September.  We will notify all new families when the IDs are available so you can set up your My Payments Plus account.  

Note:  Your child will be able to receive a hot lunch and milk in the beginning of the school year even though they have not yet been issued their ID.  Our staff will keep track of hot lunches or milks ordered and they will be deducted from your account once it is set up.
