Starting in the Fall of 2022, St. Catheriene of Siena will be using the Archdiocesan Food Services for our lunch program.  More details will be coming forward in the future, but we wanted to let parents know now so that they do not load extra money in their student's MySchoolBucks accounts before the end of the year.  Any money that is left in the account can be refunded by Pigeon's. To receive a refund from Pigeon's, please use the following link:   https://www.emailmeform.com/builder/form/0f1x6LqDIs85XZ8PiE

The Archdiocesan Food Services also uses MySchoolBucks.  Money, however, is not transferable between Pigeon's and the Archdiocesan Food Services.  Starting on July 1, parents can easily switch their students from the Pigeon's district to the the Archdiocese of New Orleans district.  Instructions will be posted later on how to switch their school district during the summer.

How does my student pay for lunch?

Pigeon's uses https://www.myschoolbucks.com  for payment. Parents should put money into a myschoolbucks account. Any student who has an account created from a prior year should do the following:

1. Select the School District. This is an option on the top right of the screen. The district should be changed to Pigeon Caterers. This may be done by clicking on the school district and using the drop down box, select add another school district. At that point the customer should select Louisiana under state and Pigeon Catering Inc. as the school district.
2. Adding Students. On the upper right hand side you should see your account name along with a person icon. Once you click on the icon, a drop down box will appear. The user should then click on the My Students selection. Once on the My Students section the user should click on Add Student. On the Add Student screen the parent will be able to choose the school (St. Catherine of Siena). The parent will also be able to put their child’s first and last name. To validate the student the parent may enter the child’s cafeteria number. (See below to obtain cafeteria number) Once that is entered the program will find the student. The next screen allows you to add the student to the account. After this step is complete, parents will be able to add a student to the account and may put funds in my school bucks.    

If I am a new student, how do I get a cafeteria number?

Can I add money to my student's account using a check?

Yes, you can pay with a check (payable to "Pigeon's Catering") and bring it to the cafeteria.  

How do visiting adult guests pay for lunch?

The cafeteria is completely cashless. If a parent or grandparent visits a student and wants to each in the cafeteria, they pay for their lunch by using the student's account.  There is not a way to pay with cash.
