Except food, apparently. |
+1. Lettuce without dressing is the absolute end! Shudder. |
If they just cut off OOB feeder rights and take care of the residency cheaters, we wouldn't be having this problem. I'm disgusted. |
As always the residency cheaters are to blame. |
It's like clockwork on this forum |
Bizarre. |
Anyone taking photos of license plates this week? |
I'm a DCPS teacher-not at Janney. What happened there is obviously awful and unacceptable, but I have to say that the lunches I have seen so far this week are actually pretty decent--far better than what they had last year. It doesn't look all that appetizing at first because everything comes in sealed plastic bags, but once the kids take the food out it's been stuff I would eat. (I'm not crazy about the amount of trash the bags create, but I'm also not crazy about the fact that my kids threw 75% of their food away last year.) |
OP, did you verify the story with the school? I can't imagine there was no fruit or crackers to offer kids. |
This is helpful--not at Janney, but had been wondering about the quality of food (at least judging by appearance). Thanks, Teach! |
Huh? You're so worked up about this issue you say it's responsible. For everything. For you, residency cheats are your "Thanks Obama". Sigh |
Both my kids - at different DCPS - reported a food shortage on Tuesday. Remember, in the past what the vendor brought was billed to DCPS, whether eaten or not. The new contract, if I remember right, only allows the vendor to bill what's actually sold. So their calculation as to how much food to bring or shortage to risk is totally different. I agree, less food wasted and less taxpayer money wasted is better but they need a backup, which they apparently pulled today by offering more options, maybe bringing out some food that can be stocked for the week? |
Not the PP, but it was a joke. |
wait, is the food seriously served in plastic bags the kids have to open?
having trouble picturing this... |
I was the PP teacher above. I realized today that our food is provided by Revolution Foods, so my opinion may not be relevant to other schools. And yes, the food is served in plastic bags (or today, in a container that you had to peel the plastic top off of.) |
