SchoolCafe

We've upgraded our school meals software to SchoolCafe!

What does this mean for you?

SchoolCafe has replaced LINQConnect for MPS Culinary & Wellness Services information. This new system offers improved access to realtime menus, nutrition facts and allergens (in your preferred language).

Printable PDF menus are still available at mpschools.org/menus.

Families will also use SchoolCafe to:

• Apply for Educational Benefits for the 2025–26 school year (our goal is 100% completion)! Paper applications are available from your school.
• Manage your account to purchase a la carte items (such as a carton of milk) and second student meals.

Any funds in your existing LINQ account(s) have automatically transferred to SchoolCafe for future use. Existing funds will appear once you create an account and link your account using your MPS ID.

Reach out to info.cws@mpls.k12.mn.us with questions. We're looking forward to improved communication and meal info access with SchoolCafe, all while continuing our mission to nourish every child!
