Students in Grades K through 8 may charge for meals at their school cafeteria, however, they should not accumulate charges in excess of $5.00. No charges are allowed for a la carte or snack items.

Students that accumulate negative balances in excess of $10.00 may receive a meal of the nutrition services manager’s discretion. The meal will meet USDA guidelines and the student’s account will continue to be billed.

Adults will be allowed only one charge. If the charge is not paid the next day, they will not be allowed to purchase anything on credit.

Pepsi Bottling Ventures has exclusive pouring rights in the Indian River School District and only Pepsi Cola products are to be sold/served at events. 

 

Larger booster groups such as those that utilize the main stadium concession stands, as well as large fundraisers and student events should order all products directly from Pepsi Bottling Ventures in Salisbury. There is a 10 case minimum order.

 

Smaller groups requiring less than 5 cases of beverages could purchase items from local stores but should think about how many cases they will utilize over the season.  If 6 or more cases will be used over the season they could order in bulk at the beginning.
