Families must update their contact information in Final Forms EVERY YEAR. This enables us to communicate as effectively as possible with all of our families. Update your information here.
If you are not familiar with FinalForms, this guide will help.
For the 2024-25 school year, all enrolled students of GLSD are eligible to receive a healthy breakfast and lunch at school at no charge.
Goshen Local School District will be able to do this through the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) of the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Program.
Students will be able to participate in these meal programs without having to pay a fee or submit an application. PLEASE NOTE: Families who wish to receive fee waivers for other school fees MUST apply for benefits (see below).
Pay school fees through My Payments Plus. Never used My Payments Plus? View our user guide.
