[quote=Anonymous]The students are forced to take everything, even stuff they don't want. Otherwise it won't count as a complete lunch and it would effect funding from the free and reduced lunch program. The students are supposed to have a certain amount of fruit and vegetables/whole grains. My kid's school has a donate table where the kids can place items they don't want for the other kids to take during the lunch period. Still, a good a amount gets trashed everyday. In some ways, MCPS's hands are tied because of the federal program. That being said, I used to work for MCPS many years ago and the food and quality has gone downhill. [quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Sad to say that there is a lot of junk food served for lunch. What is healthy (fruit), students tend to forgo. Lunch lines aren't an issue in my school.[/quote][/quote]
