Free Lunch vs. À la carte at GHS & GMS

The Gorham School District will once again provide free lunches and breakfasts to All Students during the 2024-25 school year.  The meals include an entrée, small milk, fruit and/or vegetable.  Menus are available on the school website and the Dining Services facebook page. 

In addition to these free lunches, the cafeterias in the middle school and high school will offer à la carte items available for purchase!  

These items will include desserts, specialty drinks, snacks, and additional entrees.  The à la carte items must be paid for with funds added to the student’s account prior to the day of purchase.  Funds can be added to the account via PayPams or by cash in a labeled envelope.

Any addition questions please contact:  Email Raina Lee

Free Meals

Meals are free when all components are included!  Free Meal components include:  an entree, fruit, vegetable, grain, and an 8 oz. milk. Students must choose *at least three* of these components, and one of these MUST be a fruit or a vegetable!!
