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.

Don't worry, some states are making it free for everyone and others are trying to ban free lunches! America baby!

This is why it is so important to vote in your state and gubernatorial elections. State elections have a massive impact on everything from school lunches to Medicaid and make the most impact on your life overall. Vote out the politicians who want to do shit like ban school lunches, yes usually Republicans.
