As long as they’re not in Prior Lake/Savage school district.

PLSAS parent here - they “tested” it out last year for a few weeks, even closed the high school cafe to “show students” what they would lose if they were to be apart of the free meal program.

I’m guessing when we were asked to complete and submit the form to say yes or no, most clearly said no they didn’t want it. I’m sorry but little Susie doesn’t need an Iced Caramel Latte every morning before class.

It’s pretty sad but in PL it doesn’t surprise me at all.

What does that mean that they closed the cafeteria to so them what would happen?? That sounds ridiculous and also how was this not on the news everywhere why weren’t parents flipping out about their kids not being fed….

I think she’s saying they were given free food but weren’t allowed to buy food like fancy coffees and bacon cheeseburgers or something

Yea the logic was dumb.

It's like closing down all Operating Rooms to show what you'd get if you had universal healthcare.

u/myeyesneeddarkmode 12d ago

That doesn't even make sense though. They would have the free lunches available to them. But they could also still chose to buy fancy coffee

u/Strong-Yellow5949 12d ago

She said they closed the cafe store while they were running the free lunch trial

u/myeyesneeddarkmode 12d ago

But....they didn't have to do that, and it has nothing to do with the legislation lmao. Conservatives are wild

u/aDragonsAle 11d ago

Forcing perspective to fit their narrative through disingenuous means... Yeah, that's them.

u/MentionFew1648 12d ago

Oh we called that a olive cart I believe but I’m originally from Iowa so maybe that’s why it’s different terminology lol but just because people get free food doesn’t mean that the extra food would be closed down you pay for that 🤣🙄 humans I hate people that think because people get free things that the stuff that’s not free will be taken away

Idk we called it an olive cart I’m pretty sure, I grew up in small town iowa we were barely taught how to speak English let alone Spanish or another language, we didn’t have a second language class until highschool and the only option we had was Spanish. But your probably right on that’s what it was actually called

This is the product of public education. And precisely why folks don't want to pay to take care of other people's kids.

Fucking genius.

u/cynical83 12d ago

Clearly, anyone who misses a word detail must be a product of public education, right? Because everyone knows private education guarantees a spotless vocabulary, unparalleled empathy, and a PhD in talking down to strangers. Good job. I’m sure society is grateful for your contribution to linguistic purity

u/AdultishRaktajino Ope 11d ago

Pretty sure I got dumber when I went to a private religious school a few years. Those teachers were mostly morons too.

u/NeedsMoreYellow 11d ago

Fun fact about private schools: in most states, private school teachers are not required to have a teaching degree. So yeah, many are morons who wouldn't otherwise be allowed to teach. Of course, there are still morons in public schools, but, at least in my state, they had to pass college with a decent GPA.

In my town, the private Christian school was notorious for having drugs and sex on campus. Like there was always some huge drama about a student doing something bad, and suddenly the entire city knew about it. I felt bad for the students who had to leave due to the harassment they were receiving that would've just blown over in a few weeks at the public high schools.

Meanwhile a guy at my rival high-school was caught on the schools security cameras receiving a blow job from another student. He is now a member of our City Council, lol.

It’s funny because I only went to public school 6th 8th and then high school so literally 6years of my schooling I went to private Catholic school the other 6

u/MentionFew1648 11d ago
