[quote=Anonymous]In kindergarten, our school asked that parents pack lunches for the first few weeks. It was too chaotic for kids to buy. They then showed the kids the ropes so they knew how to purchase lunch. It really reduced the stress for the kids and adults. I have 3 kids in MCPS. All were excited to buy initially but eventually expressed that they preferred to bring. They do occasionally buy when we're low on food choices or its a particularly rushed morning. I think they buy about 2x month. I thought the food sounded healthy enough until I was present for lunch one day. It is very processed. Another issue for us is that if there is money in their lunch account they can buy ice cream or other junk. You can't specify no treats. We had an issue with our oldest starting in 4th grade.
