[quote=Anonymous]regarding the comment about aren't parents concerned about the quality of food, how it is raised, etc, I think it is a balance. If your family faces this: No food or the food from the cafeteria that is free? Pretty easy decision, don't you think. It may not be ideal, but it is a meal. In the 8 years since my children started at DCPS, through lobbying of parents and pushing the school chancellor and dietician, the food has improved greatly (when my son was in pre K it was fruit loops and pink milk for breakfast, he used to beg me to get school breakfast) but it is not perfect and never will be with the budgets they have to work with and the red tape. I don't qualify for free lunch, I can afford to and have time to make breakfast at home and to pack a lunch for my kids, so I choose to always do that. Not everyone is that fortunate. [/quote]
