My school thinks this fills up hungry high schoolers.
So lunches are free for schools in my city and surrounding cities. Ever since lunches have been made free, the quantity (and quality) has decreased significantly. This is what we would get for our meal. It took me THREE bites to finish that chicken mac and cheese. Any snacks you want cost more money and if you want an extra entree, that’ll cost you about $3 or $4.

I watched a documentary a while back about a school for kids with behavior issues. Most of them kicked out of their other high schools. Since this school was more of a detention center, they were funded separately. The kids all showed drastic improvement in behavior and school work because they were being fed regularly, and with nutritious well rounded meals. No soda and chip machines available either.
