[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do kids really sit on the floor to eat??!?

Where are the cafeteria tables? [/quote]

The cafeteria might have space for like 200 kids, if that. What is a school of 2000 going to do, have 10 lunches? Of course kids eat elsewhere. I ate sitting on the floor in the hallway with my friends at RMHS 20 years ago, with one open lunch for everyone, and we thought it was absolutely fine. [/quote]

Eww that is nasty af

I guess large overcrowding schools are no big deal here. We had grade level lunches and there were tables for everyone. Definitely looking into private schools for middle and high school. [/quote]

That’s rich.  Good luck with that.  But, if you want the slow math track and dumb down your kids, private is the way to go.  [/quote]

Give me a break on the bashing of private schools. My DD graduated Holton taking multivariable calculus as a senior.  She also knew how to write papers, won the state chemathon and got a huge scholarship to her top college.

She had breakfast, lunch, and snacks served at Holton as [b]they were not allowed to bring food from home in[/b].   They had enough tables/chairs in the cafe or courtyard so the girls could sit and eat.  And since they didn't allow cell phones in school, it was a nice environment with healthy food and conversation. Here is the menu this week.  https://mgdining.com/holton-arms/menus/

So give me a break on the "must eat on the floor to get a high math class" crap. [/quote]

Well, that's odd. But I suppose for $52,970+, you want to feel like you're getting your money's worth.[/quote]
+1 how dumb to compare an expensive private with a large public school system with 35% FARMs rate.[/quote]

That’s the base price.  They have lots of extra fees.  [/quote]
