[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's chaotic. I'd pack for a while, till things calm down. [/quote]

Keep in mind, there even some chaos around that. This is moving a bunch of kids into places, getting them situated, and getting them to eat.
OP, if you do send lunch in--I can not stress this enough...
[b]Make every single item something the kid can open themselves.
Part of the chaos is teachers and aides trying to open up every single kids individual food items.[/b]
One of the reasons I ultimately found paying for the cafeteria lunch preferable. [/quote]

Agree, agree, agree. [b]I even sent in a napkin and silverware[/b]; it all just went back in her lunch bag, so she could use all the time to eat and not worry about getting those "extras" and throwing stuff away, etc. [/quote]

There is a common misconception that schools have spare silverware and napkins in the cafeteria. A lot of schools do not, so parents—please don’t assume that you don’t have to pack utensils and napkins because the school will provide them. The school does provide them for the students who buy school lunch and they’re housed in the lunch line. If your kid is waiting for an adult to provide them with utensils or a napkin they will be waiting a long time for someone to find something. I know it sounds crazy that a cafeteria wouldn’t be well stocked with utensils and napkins, but they’re only provided enough for the kids buying lunch. [/quote]
