    What school district are you in? They ought to know better than that, for Christs sake!!

    Even my 17 year old gets to eat lunch if he doesn't have the money, between the time school begins and the time he's approved for reduced lunches, for Petes sake!!!! WOW, that is some crap!@!

    I feel for ya, hon, and hope they smarten up.

    I absolutely cannot BELIEVE they would not feed him!! Kids around here are given much smaller meals if they cannot pay/ haven't paid up but they ARE fed! What in the hell?!? I'd call the head of that school board, ASAP.

    I am not sure where the school district is but where my girls go, if they do not have enough money in their account then they still eat lunch, they get a peanut and jelly sandwich, milk, fruit. So they atleast they don't go hungry, I would be upset just like you are. I can't believe that they would do that to a child. That is a long time to go without eating for them. I have a hard time going 2 hours without eating. I usually eat every 2-3 hours right now.

    Good Luck and keep us posted. :bigsmile:

    How long ago did they lose his application? I agree that's ridiculous! There is no excuse for letting your child or any child go hungry! Hope everything gets straightened out.

    Same here - they give the kids crackers and milk if they don't have a lunch. I was told that legally, the school district cannot NOT feed the kids (crackers and milk isn't much, but it's a lot more than nothing!)

    :mad: OMG how long has this been going on?? Our school district is the same as some of the other posters, if the kids don't have or forget their money they get PB&J, fruit and milk. And the teacher usually sends home a note saying your child didn't have money with them or in their account (in case the money was sent and is going elsewhere)... Nevertheless, what did they have your child doing during lunch? Watching the other kids eat? That is quite disturbing!! I think the teacher as well as who ever screwed up and lost the form AND any other employees that saw what was going on are all *kitten* and you should go straight to the Board of Education!!! This is from a Mom of 3 and a Certified Substitute Teacher!!!!!

    Same goes for our local school district, if there is no money they still get something. Why did they wait so long to contact you? Idiots!

    Yes they make a mistake. Yes you had to take a lunch to him. Is that worthy of a lawsuit? Hell no. There are bigger things in life to worry about that a freakin' missed lunch.

    Max - I think it has happened more than once - sounds like it's been going on for awhile. A lawsuit? Maybe not at this point, but something needs to be done because it is not right to let a child go hungry everyday.

    How did the poor baby concentrate. When I am hungry, I totally check out. I am in the chair, but I am not really there! Give your baby some love, and kick some tail at school!

    Okay, I was trying not so say anything. But if you knew he wasn't getting lunch why didn't you. 1 ) go fill out another application 2) pack a lunch 3) contact somebody and see if he could eat until it got worked out or 4) pay for a few lunches until you filled out the new application and it got approved.

    Yes they should make sure he is getting fed, but so should you.

    I don't want to see a kid go hungry, but I just get tired of folks expecting institutional authorities to care for our kids. That's not their job. That's my job. Their job is to educate.

    I agree.

    Is today the first day this happened? I can't really tell from your post, but it sounds as if it isn't. Why didn't Cecil tell you they were not giving him lunch all along? Gosh, my son called me the day that the lunch lady told him his account was negative and he couldn't eat. It was a mistake, his last name is different than mine, and they put it on another kid's account because he had the same last name. One of the ladies in line did tell him he could eat off the salad bar, but he hates salad. He had a few crackers, some shredded cheese, and some carrots. That being said, mistakes do happen...
