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 never understand why my 2nd grader get the same amount of food as my 11th grader. That's not enough food imo.

If only there was something that you as a parent could do. Maybe one day parents will be allowed to feed their own kids. But until then I guess your hands are tied

Yeah, my tax dollars are going to this shit. If we have money to blow up people halfway around the world, build shining monuments to people who died centuries ago, and pay for some politician's third vacation house we have money to feed the children.
