They explicitly don’t allow this. They send a million notes that they won’t accept food. That said, I did recently ask what to do after he had forgotten his lunch, and they said they can provide it. I went over the me options, and all they had was fruit basically. They reluctantly didn’t tell me no when I stated that they would have to except a DoorDash for him the next time it happens.

You sound unreasonable. You forgot to pack his lunch and make it the schools responsibilty. You can pack a lunch and drive it to the school. Your kid isn't special and if they agree to one they'd have to agree to all adn there are too many kids for that nonsense.

He’s lost his lunch box before on the bus. We work and have to get out, so it’s not always possible to drive a replacement lunch to school.

How do you lose the lunch box? Put it in the backpack or use a clip and clip it to the backpack.

(lots of other ones too)
Pair with glutton free crackers and other snacks. Yogurt, etc.

Here is a tiny mini fridge just for that kid:

You can do an order every other day or so with a $35 minium.

That’s a bunch of snacks. We already have multiple mini fridges, but they don’t store enough to do much. We can’t cook easily or have any storage anywhere. You really have no clue. It’s temporary, but the problem is a real one that should be easily accommodated. Having modular lunches is the solution

You are making all kinds of dumb excuses. You buy some lunch meat, and glutten free crackers in a baggie, then you have one of those kits, yogart or cottage cheese and done. Yes, we do have a clue. You refuse to be reasonable. If you have multiple fridges, you can find the space to hold some lunch food for your kid. This is a dietary preference not a medical need. If you are wealthy enough to do that kind of full scale remodel, you can figure this out. Hire a private chef to delivery food to the hosue each morning.

We got rid of the delivery entitlement at my high school when we told the drivers if they stepped into our school they would need to get in the long line to show their ID and have their picture taken. None were willing to do so. Now the drivers leave the food on the ground outside and who knows who ends up with what.

Just let the kid “survive” on fruit and other cafeteria items one day.

OK, this was the post that pushed me over into This Is A Troll category for me.

nobody said celiac. Even just being able to have something like a hamburger without a bun. There is literally NOTHING on the menu that can even be customized for somebody with a gluten sensitivity that isn't to the level of celiac. The only thing they have is multigrain cereal.

Celiac is a thing. Gluten sensitivity is total BS. There are studies showing that gluten-free diets are actually harmful to children.

And there are studies showing gluten is harmful to children.

+1 This is a middle schooler. Let's say just one day he has to eat only fruit and a carton of milk for lunch. One single day in his whole life he has to get from 7:30 (breakfast) to 3:15 (after school) with only what can be salvaged from the school lunch. Isn't that a natural consequence that might help him remember his lunch moving forward?

Exactly, I would have told my kid "guess you'll remember your lunch next time" and stop worrying about it.

Also, I can't get over the fact that a seemingly healthy middle schooler is gluten free.

I mean, the one thing I believe OP about is that the kid gets stomach upset if he eats gluten. That's a thing that absolutely happens. Everything else is galaxy brained permissive parenting.

Op here. There is a 504, but not for lunch, since they bring from home and only need something occasionally.

A remodel is not a reason to demand a special meal for your child and its not a medical need, its a parenting concern.

When he forgets his lunch, it certainly is. Also, he has a right to be able to purchase lunches that work for his diet when it’s not really even a big deal for them to have a hamburger available where he can have them not add the bun…or have something meat based they had potatoes instead of wheat bread.

Nutjob did you just say you son forgetting his lunch is a medical need? This is a parent failure not medical issue.
