The Benefits of Eating Lunch in the School Gymnasium

Have you ever taken a bit in your school lunch and just want to spit it all back out? Or how about the little portions you get? These types of school lunches should not be allowed to be given to the students because there are many reasons why school lunches are bad for health reasons. Although the school lunches are supposed to be healthier and better for our well-being, school lunches should change because it’s not very appetizing, there are little portions, and there isn’t any difference in the health level before.

One of the main reasons to have an open campus during lunch is because as said in the intro most of the students don’t even like the lunch

To begin, Students need positive social environments to grow healthy relationships between other students and staff. Not only does socializing play to common sense, but it has also been studied and proven by numerous institutions. For example, an article written for the Journal of Counseling and Development found that, “[S]tudents’ relationships and emotional connections to their teachers are highly associated with academic success” (qtd.in Bryan). Teamwork and critical thinking are spawn from interaction between those with whom we mingle on a daily basis, i.e. school mates and teachers. What better time to interact with others, than lunch time. Lunch time allows for a comfortable environment where children can interact with each

     Numerous types of crimes can be committed if a school allows an open campus during the lunch hour. Felonies usually occur during times when people are not at home. At lunch, students can have illegal access to vulnerable houses if they choose to do so when they are wondering around in the streets. This could lead to a crime increase among a neighborhood, and cause disputes and problems. Citizens feel safe in their neighborhoods, but crime and robberies can make them feel uneasy. They would need to purchase state of the art security

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.

With “rat droppings being recorded in the bins and drawers of the high school’s kitchen,” I think it’s safe to say that my high school has never had this bad of a problem in the school’s cafeteria. With that being said, we have had some negative situations with our lunchroom. The biggest problem we had was in my 10th grade year when we had our modified block schedule and some of the lunch classes fit in the time frame of our school’s bell schedule. This caused for some kids not getting to eat or being tardy for their next class.

Schools take control of students every move from the amount of homework they get to

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).

The author’s intention is to inform the reader that the healthy lunch programs are failing. The author provides plentiful information and research on the failing school lunch programs in the U.S. “In the war to get America’s children to eat healthier, things are not going well.” Kids are not eating their vegetables. This has become a big problem in America and steps need to be taken to stop unhealthy eating. Like The Agriculture Department mandating that students in the federal lunch program choose a fruit or vegetable with their meals. This solution didn’t work and actually worsened the problem. “Their consumption of fruits and vegetables actually went down 13 percent after the mandate took effect.”

Childhood and teenage obesity has been an issue in America for more than twenty years now. The percentage of obese children has nearly doubled in this time, according to the article “Is Your Kid Failing Lunch?”. Today’s generation of kids is recorded as the fattest generation in history. One of the main causes of this is believed to be fast food kids are exposed to every day in school lunches. Schools are now starting to serve fast food in their lunches as more kids demand it, causing an increase in the schools profit. Outside of that, Americans are currently spending more than $100 billion a year on fast food. Each day one in four Americans will eat at a fast food chain (Beaver). This is easy to believe as the global fast food industry spent

The article about fixing kids lunch and diet is a great idea because it can help kid lose weight and help them be more active and athletic. “That’s a wise choice, since childhood obesity has become a national problem: In 2012, 1 in 3 American children were overweight or obese.” This shows how it can help cut down the rate of overly obesity in america.

If we had a six to twelve minute longer lunch at P.D.C.M.S., students would be outside more. Since lunch is one of the two sections of the regular school day that students are outside, having a one to two minute longer lunch would make the people whose parents or guardians say they don't get outside enough be outside when they might not get any exercise at home and just play video games.

Students in school all around the world are provided with school lunches. The problem is most students are not enjoying what they are eating. To solve the problem of students not enjoying their lunches some may argue that schools should provide off campus lunch, but many may also argue to stick to the regular on campus school lunches. Off campus lunches will benefit the students and will drastically make sure every student eats and enjoy lunch.

To begin with, hour lunches will offer tutoring for those who need it, and extra time to work. Also, with the approval of teachers you can study and eat in a classroom. Some students can't stay after school so this is a perfect opportunity. Following, students only have thirty minutes in lunch,therefore they rush to eat. Some student do not even have enough time to finish eating. On the other hand, there will be club meetings where
