They did not give a lot of food out. Many kids were still hungary after finishing meals. They had two different options. The salad bar and the main line

I have always felt safe there. They have speakers come in once in a while to talk about subjects like bullying, drug/alcohol abuse, and safety in general. The teachers are great for the most part. The resources are there.
