Have you ever thought of the Hoggard cafeteria building as being a jungle you have to fight your way through every day just to get a bite to eat? SMART lunch should be a time to study, do homework, or relax. But how can I focus with people stomping down the hall like a herd of elephants or screeching like chimps fighting for the ripest banana? My only escape is the chorus room but even the short fifty foot walk down the hall is unnecessarily difficult and sometimes dangerous. One day in particular almost pushed me over the edge. As usual, the building was chaos forcing me to weave and dodge through the crowd but as I turned the corner to head towards the chorus room my path was deliberately blocked. Kids were standing shoulder to shoulder laughing refusing to let me past. When I asked them to move they laughed and said, “what's the password”. I finally managed to push past them but one of them tripped me making me spill my lunch all over the floor. One of the lunch ladies saw what happened and let me get more food and made the kids in the hall clean up the mess. …show more content…
Making it almost impossible to focus on getting work done. These issues were not always this bad it only started this year when they started keeping us from leaving the building or going to different parts of the school during lunch. I understand that these students in the hall’s behavior is unacceptable but I also understand that some people have a harder time controlling their pent up energy by denying us the ability to move freely between buildings removes some kids outlets causing them to act

November 12th, 2015 at 12:13pm at Windham Middle School, students were coming out of the cafeteria like animals loud, pushing, an shoving in the hallway. All the students happened to be sixth graders. Some of the students were dangerously pushing, shoving, and running. Most of the student were extremely loud. Teachers noticed that this has become a problem because it is distracting to some students. This is a really big problem because it distracts students from their work. This is a problem that can be resolved easily by teachers watching and discussing with students on how to behave in the
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. This also shows student that they have to have the ability to manage time. This also give kids time to break up the day and relax.
Do you feel rushed at lunchtime and don’t have enough time to eat your lunch, well I have a solution, longer lunch.
being made as they wait in line. The schools has healthy food options like a salad bar that is placed right at eye level so
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.
Children in America are faced with different choices every day. Some of these choices can be either good or bad for them. But these children don't really know the consequences of their actions, but the school does. Schools are serving unhealthy and un properly cooked meals to children every single day. These food companies make big money from these schools because the schools just buy the lunches so the kids will eat something. The schools don't really care what goes into the students stomachs, but as long as the school meets the requirements it's okay. Then the students just eat it because it looks and taste good, but they don't have an idea of what their eating is made out of or where it has been before. The government needs to start making school lunches more healthy for these students, if not then then unfortunately the number of obese children will rise.
Everyone loves the idea of a government that truly cares about him or her. Especially a government that would go so far as to layout a healthy diet plan to insure the health of your children and to battle childhood obesity. It is great that the government is concerned about adolescent obesity and the nutrition students receive at school. However, the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) Food and Nutrition Guidelines provide more problems for schools and they need to be eradicated, as well as repealing the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act.
Do you live in a school district that has questionable school lunches for kids? Packing a lunch will be a healthier option and can even save you some money too. If you are already doing this, then a great way to save time is to prepare make ahead school lunches.
Staff are check the halls and pull nearby students into their classroom and lock all doors and windows. Teachers that do not
The National School Lunch Program is a great resource for schools to use, to help provide children whom may not be able to afford their own lunches. The problem with the program though is that the recent changes to the requirements schools must follow make it difficult to provide lunches that are appealing and fulfilling to students. Schools also find that it is costing them more to try and follow these requirements and there is a lot more waste because students are not happy. The NSLP needs to change some of its requirements so schools can have some freedom in how lunches are prepared so students will be more likely to eat them. They also need to take in consideration that not every student should follow the same calorie count and how not have enough can affect a student, and too much creates waste. With certain changes the NSLP can be successful once again.
The National School Lunch Program is a federally funded meal program operating in over 100,000 public. It provides nutritionally balanced, low‐cost or free lunches to more than 31 million children each school day in 2012 based on the child's household income (USDA). The program is managed by the Food and Nutrition Service at the Federal level and by a State education agency at the state level. We will be looking at the statistics of the National Lunch Program for five local schools, and compare the number of students enrolled in the districts and the percentage that are receiving free or discounted meals at school. Additionally, the requirements to be eligible to participate in the program, as well as the reimbursement the school
The health of students should be considered one of the most important issues in education. However, as of 2012, the Center for Disease Control calculated that over one third of children and adolescents were either overweight or obese. Not only does obesity cause physical health problems, but can also affect the academic performance of students. Over the past few years, Americans have been working together to find solutions for this problem.
The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) is one of the largest food and nutrition assistance programs in the United States. (Moore, Gothro, Conway, Kyler, 2014). The NSLP provides nutritionally balanced lunches free or reduced- prices meals to income-eligible children each school day. The program is federally funded but administered through State and individual school districts. Federal government establishes the program rules and guidelines. States monitor funding and compliance of the federal guidelines.
The target users of our database are persons working for a school district cafeteria. These employees create the menus for several local elementary through high school campuses, and need to create menus for those schools based on many various factors. Due to the way public school cafeterias function, employees need to be wary of several obstacles when creating menus such as; cost, allergens, waste reduction, and calorie/nutrient status. We have indexed ingredients, allergens, cost, and calories for various sandwiches that have been approved by the school district. This index helps cafeteria staff search for the perfect sandwich combo based around the specific campus criteria.
