Lacy High School Case Study

Schools across the nation are debating over the issue in whether high school students should be allowed to leave their campus during their lunch period or remain on school grounds. Students need an open campus lunch policy to give them the freedom they deserve. Many could argue that an open campus creates drama and destruction, but more good comes than the bad. Responsibility, staffing, and local businesses all contribute to the successes of having an open campus lunch. High school students sit in class all day isolated to the confined space of the school property. They need and deserve a little time to escape.

Students are tired of eating this school lunch students go hungry throughout the whole day and not focus in class because he/she is hungry and would choose to not eat the school lunch.Everyday students complain how nasty the food is yeah i understand school food is healthy for you.it’s hard for students to study on an empty stomach.We know it’s healthy for you but we can choose healthier foods.Students should be able to leave school for lunch.

Through a written Profile of Lacy Elementary School, Special Situations Analysis of the School Cafeteria I was able to analyze their current situation. Through my observations, I will explain issues and factors of student, teacher/staff, and environmental characteristics.

The process to achieve open campus lunch benefits would involve security attendance, extension of lunch periods and student records. The students will have to go through a process to be able to continue the privilege of having open campus lunch throughout the year. The researcher will conduct a proposal to meet and talk with the Board of Education on behalf of student rights and lunch reform policy for the need of student involvement. The meeting is to consider if off campus lunch would be eligible to community high schools for productive upper class students. (Open campus, mountainvistaonline.org). Therefore, students could have a complete understanding of conduct regarding the educational rules and regulations that applies with an open campus policy. For instance, an explanation of proper designated times for lunch and departure from school grounds. An example would be the consequences of violation of policy from a student’s actions. Consequences would include a student receiving a disciplinary referral, suspension or expulsion depending on how severe the offense is. (U.S. Department of education “FERPA General Guidance for students” www2.ed.gov).

How would you like it if the lunch lines weren’t so full but your students all had a filled stomach? Well I honestly believe that if you gave only 11th and 12th graders the opportunity to leave campus for lunch and it would make everyone’s life easier.

It is shown that after eating the same cafeteria lunch everyday most kids get sick of it. Students would have access to better food after the middle of a tiring school day if allowed off campus. At the same time, some may disagree for opposing reasons. In my writing i will be talking about the advantages of being allowed off campus during lunch break.

The school board in Leaguetown high school has decided to not refill a counseling position and two counseling programs, because of financial problems.

At Jayhawkville Central High School I noticed that the school showcased different circuits of communicating that is affecting the overall dynamic of the school. At Jayhawkville Central High School the Principal, is a strong leader and direct when he communicates, but is reluctant to implement ideas or suggestions from his building staff. The Principal has also alienated the staff, and showcases strict rules, but the staff is usually unclear about his expectations, and afraid to ask questions. With the Principals leadership style, there’s a clear disconnect among staff members which has interrupted the effectiveness of the curriculum being taught in the classrooms. The assistant principals at the school are also driven by different entities.

My first duty as principle is making the cafeteria into a food court. The food court will consist of the regular cafeteria lines, Chick- Fil- A, Subway, Starbucks, and a little cafe. The food in the cafe will be cooked by the students in the culinary classes. The cafe will have a quick grab and go station with snacks that the students or the faculty may use before going to class. The cafe will only be open during the 5 minute transition period from classes and in the mornings before school starts. In order to prevent skipping, but keeps students full and focused.

The benefits of having this outweigh the negatives. Making this the best option to improve the school. Our steps for allowing the students to leave the campus are. They must have their parents and the principle sign a contract agreeing that they can leave. The must also have a student id them. This student id will be scanned when they leave school and when they return. This will make sure that all the students are accounted for. There will also be an adult and or teacher standing by the door; this person will be in charge watching the students scan their id. This will insure that no underclassman can leave. When scanning their id there pins will also be entered, insuring no ones id is taken. Talking about underclassman only the seniors are allowed to leave. These students must be passing all of there classes. There is a formal contract written out that both the parents, principle, and student will sign. Students are not able to bring food back. They are allowed to bring liquids back but they will be monitored. There will also be two lunches first lunch will be from 11:20a.m-12: 20 pm, second lunch is from 12:25 pm- 1:25 pm. In the morning in their first class students will take a survey in their email to see if they are staying or leaving for lunch. This will ensure that the school doesn’t make to much food. One other rule is they are unable to leave on Wednesday because of the shortened

Lacy Elementary School is a K-6 public school located in an urban school district. Lacy is a 60 year old school and is the oldest school facility in the district. Built to accommodate an enrollment of 500, Lacy is currently serving 650 students. Lacy Elementary is a neighborhood school. However, 200 students are being bussed in from surrounding neighborhoods due to a recent rezoning project. Most students who attend this school qualify for the federal breakfast and lunch program.

Most students at Conroe High buy lunch from the food line, but most of them don’t even eat the food. Instead of wasting school lunches, the principle should allow students to leave school at lunch to buy themselves lunch elsewhere because the student can eat what they want and what they like. When students return to school, most likely they will be in a better mood because they ate what they craved instead of gross school lunches.

In addition the amount of room in the cafeteria is insufficient given the amount of students. The cafeteria is beyond crowded for student’s and is almost like

Within the Bentonville community there are many things that people want changed but are so unwilling to accept such as the creation of a new high school. Before the ribbon cutting or breaking ground ceremony there was already tension amongst students about who was going to west and who was going to the better of the two schools which many believed to be BHS. Along with student tension there was also faculty tension. As tenth graders many students walked into classrooms where the teacher blatantly claimed they would not be going to West because Bentonville High School would always reign supreme in athletics, arts, and academics. As a student I have noticed within the beginning of the school year many things that should be addressed in our

First of all the money should be used to upgraded the food in the cafeteria. For example, currently if the food on monday is not solid, the cafeteria attempts to sell it on tuesday.If the cafeteria used the money to buy fresh produce and fresh meats, the student body would more likely buy all the food and there would not be any leftovers. In addition, they should change the variety
