With Powerschool we used to have them swipe the cards but they lost them or destroyed them. We have just attached a keypad to our computer and have them punch in a 4-6 digit number that is their lunch ID. We still have the cards for the elementary, but our secretary then enters their lunch ID number and collects the cards.
