Argument against open campus lunch policy

One of the most controversial issues today is the question of how to address childhood obesity. Because of the large proportion of meals that children, particularly low-income children, consume in schools, cafeteria food has been targeted by dietary reformers as in need of a major overhaul. However, while many different types of new school menus have been proposed, the extent to which healthier foods can be offered remains controversial. Opponents to reform state that children will not eat healthier lunches, and that changing the food that children eat will have minimal impact, since the children will either bring food from home or eat food at home that is more 'kid friendly.'

Should schools allow open campus lunch? Schools should allow open campus lunches. It would have more choices for lunch, Many students would love not eating school lunches, It would offer an opportunity to run home and eat and get something that you forgot for a class.

HELP! I'm dying!... because school lunches are cringing! Students should be allowed to leave class during lunch hours, and be trusted to leave and return back in time for their next class. If high schools gave students this right it would teach them how to manage their time wisely and it would help them become responsible. Students who leave campus during lunch are most likely end up going to a local business to get their lunch which is both good for the students and the local businesses. Students with special food allergies could leave campus during lunch and go to their homes and get food they could actually eat and not be worried that their food could have been cross contaminated to something they're allergic to. Students who leave campus during lunch would come back energized and ready for their next classes.

For many previous years, Anaheim High school has had a couple lunch system changes finally settling on two lunches, both being half an hour long. With both lunches only being half an hour long, for certain, more than one thousand students being in each, imagine the lunch lines! Making line to get your lunch takes already about fifteen minutes, half of a person’s time already, which leaves little time for a student to enjoy their so called meal and free time with friends.Based on other student’s experiences dealing with school lunch, one can rightfully assume that high schoolers would much rather hold in their hunger until after school rather than have the food being provided. There is not a single day that goes by in which a high schooler does not complain about the “worst than jail” food being served to them. This proposal will go into detail about why having an hour off-campus lunch can increase healthier eating habits between the undergraduates of Anahiem High School. In this layout, you will read about the issue of why we believe off- campus lunch would be a healthier choice for Anaheim High school students, you will also encounter our plan of how we intend to carry out this idea, what exactly needs to be done, with the help of who, and so on.

In schools around Negaunee and around the world there are open campus for lunch. This gives students more option and healthier options for food besides the school lunch or a cold bag lunch.

French students get 1 ½-2 hour lunch breaks, and many countries including France have off-campus lunch programs, where they can go home or to a restaurant for lunch. Why can’t Oak Creek High School have off-campus lunch? By the time students are in high school, they should be responsible and trusted to have off-campus lunch privileges.

Nutrition plays an important role in the school environment. Unfortunately, proper nutrition has made its way in to the lunch room, yet has not had the impact that was originally projected. In the video, “Uproar Over School Lunches”, children’s protest to the lunch menu leads to a huge waste concern (ABC News, 2012). The video states that schools have reported a 50% increase in lunch waste (ABC News, 2012). This is huge! It begs to question, if the food is not being consumed, how effective is the nutrisous menu?

The topic of an open campus is a very touchy subject and alsi a very important matter, The fact that students are able to leave the school campus for their lunch hour is a privilege.

I don’t think school districts should fire all employees who don’t follow cafeteria rules. I think this should be based on a case by case bases. In this particular case I do understand why the lunch lady went above and beyond to help the hungry child but there could have been a better approach to handle the situation- where in the end every one came out happy. She was noting following school policies, but in her mind she believed she needed to do something. Based off the teacher’s quick decision and actions she believed what she did was right and didn’t have any thoughts about the consequences that may follow as long as what she was doing was benefiting something or someone in the

An open campus lunch program is when, during the lunch period, students are permitted to leave campus and get lunch from local businesses or even home. At Urbana High School we currently have four lunch shifts, during which students pack or buy lunches. I believe Frederick County Public Schools should start an open campus lunch program for seniors because the school lunches are not healthy enough or appealing and do not have enough lunch options. The benefits that could come from this program go beyond the happiness of the seniors, they will reach the classrooms, staff members, and community.

Thesis: Students should be allowed to leave school for lunch. Body Paragraphs Key Point: One of the primary reasons that we should be able to leave school for lunch is because we don’t like the school lunch or it makes us sick or we don’t like what’s in it. Also most students don’t get up early enough in the morning to pack their lunches. Students will come back to school.

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP), originally initiated in 1946 under the name the National School Lunch Act, has served in excess of 224 billion school lunches to children throughout the United States since its inception (National School Lunch Program). The goals of the program include serving a school lunch that meets certain nutritional requirements and is available at low or no cost to eligible students (National School Lunch Program). While the program has undergone many changes over the decades, the core tenants of the program have remained intact. Changes should be made to the way the National School Lunch Program operates to ensure that all students have access to a lunch that is nutritious and affordable for all income levels, while accommodating the palate of each child.

“Ask any schoolchild why they don't like school and they'll tell you, ‘School is prison.’ They may not use those words, because they're too polite, or maybe they've already been brainwashed to believe that school is for their own good and therefore it can't be prison. But decipher their words and the translation generally is, ‘School is prison,’” (Gray). Most students would argue that the idea of more student freedom in highschool sounds great. Things including going to the bathroom freely, being able to leave school for lunch, having a less strict dress code, having more freedom when searching online, and not being penalized for absences by the school but by the teachers individually. Having all of that freedom will make students feel more
