Being in high school does not give you the time to wait in line for lunch now in days. There are many students who have tests or labs to finish in class before lunch. This makes students run late. Some students do not have the time to take advantage of using their lunch period in a right manner.…
Did you know that majority of the high schools in California have an open campus lunch. They also get to eat at any restaurant they would like to. Every 3 and 5 high school students complain about what they get served at school. According to Southland College Prep High School students, “ they feel that they don’t have many options to choose from, and that they don’t get fed enough to last their whole 10 hour school day. Letting high school students have an open campus lunch will benefit them in various ways.

Also, junior and seniors desperately need more independence. Independence is an important milestone for young generations. Not only would this new found freedom allow upper class students to eat where they want, instead of the not so tasty food that the school provides; but it would also encourage responsible social contact.

“So from eating out, we can also learn how to make wise choices.” This would make students prepared for college by enabling them to leave campus and eat what they want. This independence would get kids ready to face the real world. “It provides a semi-sheltered climate to allow students to grow and become responsible.” This would give teens the privilege of not being watched every second of the day. If students disobeyed the rules of when they should be back, they could take away the privilege or give punishment. Throughout high school students don’t have very many opportunities to show how independent they are any letting them leave for lunch would be a perfect way for teens to show teachers they can be trusted and can survive in the real world.I know a lot of high school students who are very shy and keep to themselves. With the ability to leave school during lunch, kids would become more outgoing because there would be many more chances for them to socialize and interact with the real world. “If students have the privilege of off-campus lunch, they will gain more responsibility and more experience on how the real world works.” All kids have a big part in the future of our job…
I do not think that our school district should allow middle school students to leave during lunch. I think it is to much for kids in seventh and eight grade to leave during lunch.This privilage is also something that should be looked forward to for in high school. In this essay I will explain to you why this idea is not the best for kids in middle school.…
The obtrusive limitation of the current lunch policy lies on two key factors—time and appetite. For one thing, the current lunch time given to students is approximately 30 minutes, not enough time for digesting food with high in fiber and low in calories after the everlasting lunch lines. Students can devoured a pizza and a hamburger expeditiously with few bites whereas students can only nibble away black been burgers, tasteless salad with a drink they disgust with. Not surprisingly, the students from L.A. United School meals are “being rejected in en masse.” Who would want wait a long lunch line for food they annoy? Who would have an appetite to battle with fruits and veggies when they could wait an hour and eat what they savor. Clearly, a successful meal should be the ones that could restore kids’ appetites and reduce eating time. In turn, this may transform student’s life style.…
unfortunately come and go. High school has taught me that not every person I have as…
According to Change.org, 9 out of 10 students say they would eat something else besides lunch food if they had a choice. A variety of food choices outside of school will benefit a student's health. Likewise, teens need the option to go out and take a break from their 8 hour school day. According to a student on Change.org, “refreshing our minds before the next few classes would really help us focus more, being in a happier environment.” Students need a break from slaving in a desk all day, doing school work. Leaving school for lunch gives students some fresh air and time to relax their brain. Leaving school to go get lunch would help students with their physical and mental…
To start off, school lunches taste horrible, and students deserve better. Many students will walk up to the cafeteria line expecting to enjoy what’s being served, when it reality, they approach the food and it looks disgusting. Multiple times students at Auburndale High school won’t enjoy the food that they picked out originally. Sitting down at the lunch table they would realize that the fruits such as apples or bananas are rotten or the chicken sandwich that was picked out is still undercooked and mushy. Imagine starving all day and then when it comes time for the lunch, nothing is appealing as it should be.…
Next, there needs to be better lunches at the cafeteria at HMS. First of all, the lunches need to be bigger so the students can eat more. Before it was stated that students need food to focus in class. The current lunch sizes are for elementary schoolers. Middle schoolers are growing and need more food. Some people believe that the lunch sizes are fine but they are wrong because the kids will still be hungry. Ask the students, make a survey they will be hungry after lunch. They don’t have enough food and the little food we get is not even filling. For example, they have five small chicken wings that cost four dollars. The amount of chicken wings that we get is worth $1. Next, more kids will eat and it will be good for health. The school can…
High school students in particular lack time to socialize, eat lunch, and go about with their busy days. According to NPR, public schools give an average of 15 minutes for students to eat their lunch. Most of this time is used to wait in line for food, once students get their lunch they feel pressured to finish it quickly before the next lunch period enters in to find seats for themselves. With this lack of time, students end up wasting a lot of food, throwing away milk cartons that haven’t been opened, or hot lunches that the individual has barely consumed. Proven by research, students with more time to eat are able to take in more nourishment than students who have less time to eat. With the time, they are able to consume more of their food, reducing food waste and allowing their bodies more time to absorb nutrition from the food. Families across the nation with low income who have struggles providing complete nutritional meals for their children, depending on the school system to provide that for their children. The lunch launching method will allow students to double their eating time by cutting the waiting time in line for lunch. Along with more eating time, this means that students have cut their lunchtime in half which allows for more time that can be invested in opportunities that high school students don’t normally get to do. Some of these opportunities include a recess,…
I was sitting in the classroom when the principal came on the intercom, announcing that the bells would be delayed, and those not staying after school to go to the cafeteria. So several classmates and I started headed to the lunchroom. As we walked in, teachers with panicky and terrified faces frantically directed us to the tables. People were whispering, crying, and yelling and screaming. I sat down at one of the long, smooth, freezing brown tables, waiting anxiously to hear what was happening. I looked around and saw ugly white walls and tons of people. As more students poured in the vast cafeteria, teachers and administrators were walking hurriedly around, with horrified faces, and tear marks streaming down their faces. I, as many others, looked puzzled, student to student, wondering what in the world was going on.…
Everyone has heard school lunch horror stories, pulling the lunch lady’s facial hair out of a half-eaten cheese sandwich or worse pulling it out of your mouth, but many wonder what really goes on in a public school’s cafeteria. As a future educational professional my greatest goal is students’ success. An important part of children’s success has to do with them being prepared to be successful. They need to be prepared emotionally as well as physically. Having a healthy and fulfilling breakfast and lunch are key parts to this preparation.…
The student walks up to buy lunch and all he sees are reduced fat items and unappetizing meals. He walks back to his lunch table without anything to eat. The rest of the day he can’t focus in class and he is tired because he didn’t have lunch. The story shows that the kid has the same problem as many students in America do today, he doesn’t have any lunch choices he wants to eat.…
Having a cafeteria in high schools and college’s benefits many students. Instead of leaving for lunch, cafeterias in school help the problem. If people left for lunch, most people could be late to their next class or not show up at all. With Michelle Obamas rule of healthy food in schools, people will be getting the nutrition they need to be up and focused. This provides a balanced diet for better behaviors and learning environments. Also, if people were in school for over 4 hours, instead of learning, they would be thinking about what the next meal they’re going eat after…
