LUNCHES: Cuts favor academics

In the article “Financial woes bag Clark Fork’s hot lunch program,” I believe the parents angered by this situation are not thinking of the alternatives. If you do not want hot lunches to be cut, what would you rather have taken away in its place? Would you rather cut out academic activities? We send our children to school to learn. Cold lunches are being provided, so your children are not going without nutrition.

If you are unhappy with the current process, you can choose to prepare your child’s lunches for yourself. I support the school district for looking beyond education for financial cuts. Hot lunches are not a necessity for our children’s success in the future.
