Savor the Flavor: What's New on the Menu!

We’re excited to roll out new menu items across Mooresville Graded School District this school year. These additions offer more variety while keeping student favorites front and center.

New entrées include Stuffed Crust Pizza, Chicken Alfredo, and Roasted Drumstick and Thigh. Side options now feature both Sweet Potato Fries and classic French Fries.

Lighter choices like the Chicken Salad Plate are now available, along with new grade-specific options: the MGSD Munchable for grades K–5 and the MGSD Charcuterie box for grades 6–12.

Middle and high school students can also look forward to the Gourmet Grilled Cheese and Bacon Cheeseburger—two hearty additions we know will be a hit.

We’re proud to serve meals that are both nutritious and delicious!
