2025-26 School Meals Program Information
Our Meals Program: FGCS contracts with Fresh 'n Local Foods (FNL), a Salem-based company, for school breakfast and lunch that meet federal nutritional standards. Lunches include a main hot entree, fresh fruit, fresh vegetable and milk. Breakfasts are 'grab and go,' intended to be eaten upon the student's arrival at school before the school day begins.

Ordering School Meals
At FGCS, parents must order school meals for their students each month, whether they want meals every day or only some days. This system allows us to ensure that we have enough food for students who want school meals while minimizing food waste and reducing costs incurred by over-ordering. Orders do not carry over month to month. Orders must be received by the due date/time listed on the form, typically around the 10th of each month for the following month. Late orders cannot be honored.
