The cafeteria is furnished with fold-up tables with with about 300 attached seats available. During breakfast, most students enter the building through an exterior cafeteria door, while the remaining students (about 50-75) enter the school through the front doors and proceed directly to the cafeteria. The mornings provide for a more fluid and peaceful setting as students come in and find a seat and are quiet followed by throwing all of their trash away. Lunch is more crowded and serves 325 students in each lunch period therefore creating a logistical nightmare. There are two lunch periods (11:15 a.m.-noon, and noon-12:45 p.m.).…
This essay will describe how Sarah Wu’s book, Fed up with Lunch, discusses the horrendous problem outcomes found inside of a lunch system in a large Elementary School in Chicago that may include the true time that is given to eat the lunch, the unexpected nutrition found inside of every dish given, as well as the truth of keeping all the nutritional facts away from the public. Looking at the statuses of each school around the nation, it can clearly be stated that each school is different, however looking towards the fact that some schools lie on the same district, county, or even city can state the point that those schools have a significantly common method of running their institutions, and this one school could be the most significantly different…
main problem of meal plan are the limited options for students who do not have a meal plan and who are looking for quick inexpensive options when it comes to eating on campus. Kutztown University’s Dining Services is, “responsible for providing meal plan options that meet the nutritional and dietary needs of the University community” (kutztown.edu/dining). However, the significant changes Dining Services has made to the meal plan options during the 2016/2017 school year have prompted some disgruntled responses from students. According to students, the meal plans are becoming too expensive and options for places to use their meal plans at are dwindling.…
I observed the cafeteria at Archbishop Mitty High School. As the classes dismissed and lunch began, a swarm of student pushed, shoved, and crammed into the limited space of the cafeteria and everyone went to their classes "assigned" seats and began engulfing their lunches. As I continued watching, the immaturity soon revealed itself. The upperclassmen "role models" catapult food at the sophomores, antagonizing the sophomores to retaliate. After the small dispute several sophomores and juniors were pulled aside and interrogated as to what their motives were.…
Classroom Setting-The class as a whole has roughly 150 students spread out through 5 periods. The classroom however has 38 desks that are paired in four rows all facing the front of the classroom. In the back of the room to the right is the teachers desk with his computer, bookcases, and file cabinets. Dry erase white boards occupy much of the wall space throughout the room. The whole right side of the wall is a dry erase board that is used as a daily calendar as well as a listing of the weeks worth of work that is to be turned in on Monday.…
First of all, let's talk about how the lunch ladies put the food in the tray and the foods smell, and look. Every lunch breaks some students need to line up at the cafeteria to get their food, sometimes the line are long that the lunch ladies doing it rapidly and that made them make many mistakes for examples the apple sauce, the lunch ladies put it in the upper left of our tray, sometimes the lunch ladies tend to put too much and that leads to the students make a mess, some students accidentally dropping their trays and dropping the applesauce that makes more mess. I believe that instead of using a regular cup for the apple sauce, I believe that they should instead use a measuring cup so they can exactly measure the food that they give to…
My first grade class at Duff Elementary consists of nine boys and eight girls. The desks are organized in three groups; a horizontal row, and two small horizontal rows facing each other. The way the desks are organized allows the teacher to see the whole classroom without any complications. The teacher has two baskets which contains sharpened and unsharpened pencils. When a student needs a new pencil they switch out their old pencil for a new pencil.…
We all know that school provided lunches aren’t very good, so why not leave school for lunch? Students are always complaining about how bland as well as small school lunches are, so the best option to fix these complaints is to have an open lunch. Food isn’t just a basic component of survival, it’s also one of the many things that makes life enjoyable; but school lunches are neither nutritious or pleasing to eat. Open lunch should be allowed in Augusta High School because there are many benefits to it like more food options, boosting the local economy, and practicing time management skills. Students all need very nutrient dense meals since they are all both growing and expanding their knowledge.…
Many are pushed together in order to accommodate the large, boisterous parties of college kids. Customers are everywhere, they remind me of ants running about an anthill. Food is flying out of the kitchen, All You Can Eat Pancakes, appetizers, and shakes are dispersed among the multitude of crowded tables. The booths are scattered with people, many of which have fallen into a deep slumber, waiting to be awakened by the morning…
Due to the incident on November 14, Cheez-Its are no longer allowed in the cafeteria. We are very disappointed in the students. The cafeteria workers do not appreciate what the students have done. They do not just eat them, but also play with them.…
Preamble When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for ties with lunch officials and more to be shattered and burnt beyond repair because of FORCED seating, they must explain why they continue to enforce these rules. This requires us, to write our own Declaration of Independence for the rest of the world to see and understand why. Declaration of Student Rights We hold these truths to be self-evident, that we must declare our independence of this seating situation.…
They agreed that they will take turns. After an hour passed, the leader of the class rang the little bell she had. The students were alert and ready to start cleaning up and line…
The term “school lunch,” has had a negative connotation ever since I can remember. There’s much more to school lunch than gourmet salads or mystery meat. All over the United States schools serve lunch to a variety of different students, with different backgrounds, age groups and income. Just in one school the systematic arrangement of the lunch ladies and the policies set in place are just tiny specs of a much larger picture. The fact of the matter is, as children are developing they are being programmed and prepped for the rest of their lives.…
