Can’t they just call the parents & tell them their kids need more money for lunch? Can we be a responsible adult society for a change?

Also, I don’t think the school is actually going to go broke if they let the kid owe the 25 cents.

Yes really! My kids school calls or sends me an email. Then the next day I give my kid some more cash for their lunch. The school works on an IOU system. For the parents that can’t afford lunch they are on an assistance program. It’s not that hard.

That's despicable. Children should get lunch. End of story.

No child should go without food, water and proper clothing. To read this piece is shameful that the notion of accounts out of money? Where is the lotto money? Where are the taxes paid for school money?

I brown-bagged it throughout school. If the parent(s) can’t even be bothered to slap together a sandwich for their kid, then there’s a far bigger problem going on - one requires CPS investigation - than “lunch shaming” by the school.

No kids should be denied food, especially in elementary & middle school. And if they have the money to toss the lunch out, they can afford to let the kids eat the food. I mean, a bowl of soup, a sandwich, and an apple can't cost the district THAT much, can it?

Our son did a year abroad in Sweden. Free lunch for all, and excellent quality with an entree, salad, fruit, etc. our Swedish friends cannot fathom why we don’t feed all children equally. Oh that horrible socialism, how can they stand it?
