[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe your kids are a bunch of wussies, I’m not surprised in these days of bubble wrap kids. My school had picnic tables outside where we ate on many days in 40 degree weather. On rain/snow days we adjusted and ate in next period classrooms or gym in addition to the cafeteria. There are other middle schools in the area that have 1500 kids and you don’t hear anything about kids having to stand up to eat so [b]obviously they’re doing something wrong.[/b] Don’t be offended. I guess the good thing about this year is that there are only 470 rising 6th graders so maybe there won’t be many standing kids for their lunch. [/quote]

What?  It's an old building.  Where do you expect Deal to absorb an extra 500 kids for lunch?  Do you think Deal is just leaving vast common spaces open and never thought to use them?

"Oh my gosh!  We have this large empty gym we've never used!  And this huge common room!"  "Why did we never use this space over the past 100 years?"  "well, golly gee! our problems are solved!.  We'll just stick the extra 500 kids in here!"[/quote]
