The Forsyth County Schools Board of Education held a work session on November 10, 2026. The agenda was adopted unanimously. In a Food and Nutrition Services update, staff said the self-funded program moved to Gold Star as its food vendor following an RFP, citing the vendor’s focus on K–12 meal requirements; no contract amount or award vote was stated. The department also discussed meal participation, prior meal-price increases, summer meal service, and efforts to sustain cafeteria finances. A $10,000 donation from All for One reportedly cleared outstanding meal-account charges at the start of the school year. Staff noted that serving a meal costs about $5.75 and described federal reimbursements for reduced-price and free meals as $4.45 and $4.85, respectively.

The board received presentations on school counseling and the district’s unified literacy plan, which staff said is required under Georgia legislation and must be approved by January 1, 2027; a formal recommendation was planned for the following week. The board also placed proposed revisions to policies GBC (professional personnel recruitment) and GBR (professional personnel working conditions) on the table for 30 days of public review. No procurement-related vote or new spending approval was identified.
