So 1 million less are buying school lunches and their parents are now providing them with lunches to go to school? What is the problem?
The problem is we've been told for decades that parents wont feed their children and thats why they have to eat breakfast, lunch, and sometimes dinner there..
Because the malnourished child will perform worse in school and on the standardized tests, which will then be used to judge the competency of the teacher and the school.
Oh please....you know how hard it is to get fired for being a teacher.......
Here are 700 teachers that should be gone...but yet, they are not...thank you UNIONS....
It's an old article, but stilll provides a point...
Because their union contract makes it extremely difficult to fire them, the teachers have been banished by the school system to its "rubber rooms" _ off-campus office space where they wait months, even years, for their disciplinary hearings.
The 700 or so teachers can practice yoga, work on their novels, paint portraits of their colleagues _ pretty much anything but school work. They have summer vacation just like their classroom colleagues and enjoy weekends and holidays through the school year.
Again, where are the parents? Why are the parents not takinig care of thier child?
I can see the teacher worrying about the child and bring it up to the school officials, but that is about it.
If you like your lunch you can keep your lunch. Just after 300 million Americans lost their freedom to choose their healthcare.
Back in the 70's I had a business of reselling candy at school.
Not so much in elementary or High School, but Junior High.
I would load up in the morning at the store on the way to the bus stop, Noworlaters, Blow-pops and bubblisious gum were the hot sellers.
I would double my profits daily. Sales - costs = profit
I have a feeling these 'one million kids' are the children of conservatives, who are forcing their children to boycott the nutritious lunches just to make a statement.
When these changes first came about, some of these kids were interviewed. None of them looked hungry and/or poor. They looked like spoiled brats, actually.

Well, this has got to be the nomination for "stupid" post of the day...
