lunches chooses less than a
complete lunch, he still must
pay the same reduced price
that is charged for a com-
plete lunch.
The offer vs. serve
procedure follows the
guidelines of a new Federal
law. It is a new regulation for
elementary schools, but it
has been implemented in the
junior-senior schools in the
district. The students in
elementary school seem to
enjoy making choices. Ac-
tually, students have always
made choices about the food
they eat. We are now
recognizing this choice at the
serving line rather than
having the food returned
uneaten.
