COURSE 5: All students currently attending in-person in grades 7-12 have been extended to Course 5 until we return from Winter Break, January 6. This means you will be attending virtually.  You must be logged on for the entire class. You can still be counted absent for not attending or late/tardy if you arrive late or leave early.

GCS has been offering meals for students in grades 7-12 while they are in Course V. We will continue to do that, but due to low numbers, we will not be able to offer meals at every Goshen School. Meals will now be offered from 11:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m. at Goshen High School, Goshen Middle School, Chamberlain Elementary, Waterford Elementary, and West Goshen Elementary. If you have not utilized this service, but would like to now, you may sign up at http://www.goshenschools.org/meal-sign-up. Parents may pick up meals for students if they have the GCS Student ID number. Students may also pick up for other family members, neighbors, or friends, providing they have the Student ID numbers.
