At the YMCA the schedule is written on the three-fold board by the door. There is also a menu of the snack written right next to the schedule. There is also a snack menu in the back room where the staff goes. I observed snack many different times at this place. I observed them have animal crackers, apple pretzels. These are not all served on the same day but this is what they have had different times when I have worked. The head teacher is the one to cut up whatever fruit or vegetable they have for the snack. The other counselors that are there help pour the pretzels or animal crackers into the containers to that the children can scoop their own snack. The children only get a small scoopful of snack that the scoop them self. Then after that,

A student, Ari Velardi, claims to have gotten cinnamon toast pancakes that she says were “gross” and “moist to the point that it would flap about and fall apart.

    Shaquille O'Neal once said, "There are seven days in the week and someday isn't one." Without a YMCA most likely kids will say, "Oh I'll be able to practice someday," and they won't because they don’t have anywhere to practice. Most kids are never able to practice the sport or things they love and that causes them to never even get the chance to achieve their dreams. The community of Otto-Eldred should consider building a YMCA. First of all, a YMCA would be a good way to keep people active and healthy.…

    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.…

    School lunch programs claim to have their focus on student health, when really, they are more concerned with cost and convince. To ensure that kids grow up healthy and reduce America’s obesity rate school lunch programs need to provide nutrition education and healthy foods to students. The Article posted on Time “An Abbreviated History of School Lunch in America” by Emelyn Rude this past September shows the way school lunches have been in America since they first became a part of the student’s life. This is interesting because it shows how school lunches started up and how they were originally planned to be, the article says, “These programs were shown to be not only providing growing bodies with nutritious foods, but they were also teaching…

    A morning edition of national public radio, titled, “Lunch Ladies Want Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act to Lighten Up” featured Jean Ronnie, president of the School Nutrition Association. I chose this because Ronnie works directly with schools, lunch ladies and makes a lot of the recipes for school lunch herself. Ronnie described one of the students favorite meals, “Fresh roasted chicken, cornbread that 's homemade, apple kohlrabi slaw and strawberries” that can no longer be served because of the sodium content. This rule among many other restricts snack and meal options for schools and students. I personally love having healthier options to choose from in the vending machines.…
