Mine is averaging between $20 - $25. Says the lunch portions are too small. |
Yes mine has been getting double entrees almost every time which really increases cost. |
I hadn't realized this, until DD told me that they get like 4 cheese sticks for lunch. Which is definitely not a good sized portion. DD takes lunch from home, so when she buys, it's to supplement, and for friends that don't have the money for lunch. |
OP here. Just realized I added up this week's meals (4 days) to get the 20-25 number. So it's more like $25-$30 at least. |
Easily 2 lunches, pretzels, cookies. Says he’s hungry. |
Mine often gets two entrees also. They serve the same portion size to kindergarteners as they do to 14 year old boys. |
So have them pack their own lunch. |
My son would occasionally buy extra items but I would load $50 on his account and it would take him a few months to get through it.
Mr friend’s son was spending $50/week so she made him supplement with things from home. |
Sometimes my kid gets two pizzas and not much else and gets charged for two full lunches. The portions are too small for middle schoolers that are nearing 6 feet. Is there an a la carte option? |
My kid likes a hot lunch. We don’t have the variety that the school lunches provide. |
