Middle School Students Without Lunch

Although kids that attend schools that have their meals supplied by the Whitson’s Culinary Group would normally receive milk, a cheese sandwich, a fruit, and a vegetable if their accounts had a negative balance, middle school children at the Coehlo Middle School in Massachusetts were denied this. Last week, 25 children were not given food as a result of having debt in their lunch accounts. Students in this situation were instructed to throw out their food before they could eat it. Parents of children that attend the school were outraged. The principal of the school and the Whitson’s Culinary Group both apologized for the incident.
