Lunch Program

Welcome to the Lunch Program at GWCS!

GWCS is proud to be a part of the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) offering nutritious meals through our partnership with Lintons Food Service Management. 
 
All families will need to have an account in either Compass or our NEW lunch system called SchoolCafe to participate in our school lunch program. Information on account set up and application will be emailed on August 1st and must be completed by August 16th. Registering for a lunch account is important as it allows families the ability to purchase lunch and also qualifies families for free and/or reduced lunch. If you have any questions or need assistance setting up your account please reach out to Ms. Sexton, [email protected]

All SFAs must inform families about the availability and location of free meals for students via the Summer Food Service Program. Sponsors are required conduct SFSP outreach before the end of the academic school year to ensure that eligible families are informed of the availability and location of SFSP meals. This is required even if the SFA is not participating in the Summer Food Program.
 
Schools may fulfill this requirement through postings on the school's website, Robo calls, flyers or other methods that notify the community of locations of summer meal sites. A sample promotional flyer is available on the United States Department of Agriculture at https://www.fns.usda.gov/sfsp/raise-awareness
 
Schools or families may use any of the following methods to locate sites that serve free meals to children during the summer:

•Text “FOOD” or “COMIDA” to 877877 during the summer months
