Ask your Principal to allow kindergartners to eat lunch in their classrooms!

This is what our Principal did after a disastrous year of Kindergartners eating lunch at 10:30 in the cafeteria because of overcrowding (5th graders ate lunch at 1:30).

Everyone was much happier with a more normal lunch time. Eating in classrooms isn't a bad thing at all.

Most schools do not have the staffing to have supervision in each classroom at lunch time.[/quote]

Honestly this was a problem that we had during COVID when students were still eating in the classroom. There aren't necessarily half a dozen people around the school that have nothing to do for either that 30 minutes or longer if they're supporting multiple lunches.[/quote]

Then hire more people. No child should have to eat lunch at 10:30. Only in the US where people don't understand meals and food is this a problem.

OP here and agree. Meals are supposed to be nourishing at the right time, between 11:45-1. [/quote]

Sure, but you can't fit (in some cases) 900-1,000 students into an undersized cafeteria in half hour blocks between 11:45 and 1:00.[/quote]

The school can make it happen if there’s willingness and pressure from families.[/quote]

Nope cannot happen.[/quote]

Yup we the people can make it happen.[/quote]

Capacity limits exist. The fire marshal exists. Nope. Sorry.

"We the people," my ass.  :roll: [/quote]

But they attended grade school. They know how it all works. They are experts in school scheduling! [/quote]
