The schools have gone nuts here.
I posted in the debate forum about the fact that the school is now limiting the number of calories a child is allowed to eat at lunch each day. I thought it was 800. It's actually 600.
Amanda got more than 700 calories today and was told she wasn't allowed to buy it. Keep in mind that she is skinny and also had an eating disorder several years ago that she thankfully has recovered from. The lunch lady said "I'm sorry, you can't have all of that" and Amanda said "Look at me. Do I look fat? I'm hungry. I'm taking it." and she walked off with her caloric contraband. Yowza. I think I'm going to spend a fair amount of time in the principal's office.
Zoe and Aidan go to the same school and obviously take the same bus to school each morning. Apparently, the planning was a little off and now they are having to send the bus out twice to get everyone to school. So. Zoe will get on the bus at 7:20-7:25 and Aidan will get on the bus at 7:40-7:45. HUH?
It's like the world is crazy....it really is.
Fall used to be my favorite time of year. Now I remember why I started disliking it so much.
If we don't *like* the decision, by the way, we are free to drive our children to school. And my take on it? Then they are free to count on my no vote for every levy, resolution and plea for cash!
geesh.
OK. Rant over.
