If you contact the school nurse and explain the situation, you may need a doctor's note, but you should be able to get his meals heated. This way you can send "leftovers" which is what I ate when I was teaching. I planned to cook a little extra for dinner then took my lunch out first and put it in a microwaveable dish and refrigerated it until the next day. I used to take leftovers, such as pasta dishes to school for lunch, myself. However, I just ate them cold (although in South Florida, where I went to high school) it was rarely actually cold. I'd also take stews and soups, yoghurt, fruit, etc. I wasn't gluten intolerant then, though, so there were a lot more choices (i.e. wheat dishes, pasta, etc.), but if can either find or make pasta that works, or even polenta, you could do that. In college, after I had discovered the intolerances/sensitivities, I came home every day and cooked myself lunch, then drove back to school for my afternoon classes. Silandara
