A southwestern Ohio school says it does not deprive children of school lunches, but prohibits students with lunch debt from buying a la carte items.
Children with a negative school lunch balance cannot participate in an Ohio school's Ice Cream Fridays, prompting criticism on social media.
"The post was intended to communicate to Donovan parents how several district-wide rules apply to a la carte items purchased in the cafeteria," the post read."These rules are not new. Students who have a negative balance on their account are not turned away; they are provided a meal. Students are not allowed to purchase a la carte items if they have a negative balance in their meal account. Ice cream is an a la carte item.
There is a growing trend of states providing school lunches for all students. Massachusetts, New Mexico, Minnesota and Illinois all approved bills earlier this year to make school lunches free for all students. California, Colorado and Maine also have laws on the books to offer free meals to students.
