No child should be hungry at school.
I remember how brutal the cafeteria can be, particularly if there's an easy target. Food insecurity should never happen, especially in a public school.
Children should be fed. Period. Parents should know they are not alone, it takes a community to raise a child and, in a country with so much, no child should go hungry.
A friend posted about how important the free meal program was to him growing up.
No kid should have to worry about paying a lunch tab. School is stressful enough already.
