Enterprise

Enterprise accounting consists of Food Service, Business Development and Medicaid Finance.

Food Service

The Food Service Fund is used to account for the financial operations of the breakfast and lunch programs offered by the District. The District operates several hundred school lunchrooms serving over 100,000 meals daily. For over twenty-five years, the District has participated in the National School Lunch and Breakfast programs which are federal programs to provide partial reimbursement of the cost of meals served to children. The remaining costs of preparing and serving these meals are paid by the students and staff. The District also participates in the summer food program, which is funded by the Texas Department of Human Services.

 Medicaid Finance

The Medicaid Fund is used to account for the financial operation of special reimbursement programs offered by the District. For several years, the District has participated in a Medicaid reimbursement program, which is a federal program to provide partial reimbursement for health care services provided to eligible children. The District currently provides Medicaid advisory services to over 200 Texas school districts.
