Your child must have a positive balance on their account to be able to purchase these items. There is a no charge policy for snack and al la carte items.  You can send cash or check (payable to Diboll ISD Child Nutrition) with your child each day in an envelope with the child's name and cafeteria wrote on the envelope.  This will be forwarded to the cafeteria and posted to your child's lunch account. Junior High and High School students can pay at the register. Please see links below for a full list of snacks offered with pricing and DISD charge policy.
