[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Chipotle, Flippin Pizza, Subway, Quartermaines, Not Your Average Joe's, and Giant, where teens can buy anything they want for notthat much money. Oh - and across the Street at Wildwood is Fish Taco, Chopt, LPQ soon a bagel shop, and there's a Chinese restaurant in one of the medical buildings across the street on Rockledge.  And, if you have a car, drive to the foocourt at Montgomery Mall.  Yeah, they like their open lunch - not sure what a teen would want that they can't get at one of the nearby places.[/quote]

Chain junk food in the middle of soulless office buildings. [/quote]

I went to WJ a long time ago, before there were even this many food options.  I think you're underestimating how exciting it is for 14 year olds to be able to buy whatever they want for lunch, on their own, or for a 16 year old to be able to drive to the mall for lunch.  These aren't wealthy Londoners, they're suburban adolescents.  It's fun to be able to walk around during the day with your friends.[/quote]

+1000 They learn some independence/money management too. As a WJ parent, hated the idea at first but grew to love it. No cafeteria problems that other schools have. This is probably what kids will miss the most when they get moved to Woodward (even though that’s not happening for awhile). Maybe Woodward seniors will still be allowed to leave campus or something.[/quote]
