Subject: Re: Going home for lunch
I think they should have the option of going home for lunch, or, if not, at
least a 2 hour midday break, on campus, supervised by rotation by a
teacher/s, with a lunchroom where students can relax until studies resume.
The library should be open then to serve as a study hall. Restroom
facilities should be cleaned and restocked twice a day. Then only can
schools be expected to be open for long school days. Hopefully the lunches
will be nutritious, but I guess that's last on our wish list.
