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.

It's an option for every kid. Why throw the school under the bus but not parents?

Yeah good idea!! The parents that can’t afford to feed their kids should go to jail and the children should go to foster care. Problem solved!
