Meal Plan Discussion

The Meal Plan got a lot of discussion at the school board meeting on January 10, 2023. The discussion starts at 4:53:26 on  https://livestream.com/richland2/events/10733970/videos/234531948

Every parent and every taxpayer should watch this discussion.

There are three levels of payers for meals. There are Free Meals. There are Reduced-Price Meals. There are Full-Pay Meals.

If the student does not qualify for Free Meals or Reduced-Price Meals, then he (she) pays for his meals. Or he should.

Except now he (she) doesn't, because there is a Moratorium on charging for meals.

How did that happen? How could that happen? Did the prior school board authorize that? Did it have the right, the authority, the power to give free meals to those who are supposed to be paying for them?

Listen carefully to Supt. Davis' comments about the Moratorium. Somebody should try to figure out what he really said. He uses the "royal We" when referring to who decided.

WHO DECIDED ON THE MORATORIUM, which has caused the debt to increase from $70,000 to OVER $340,000 and to be headed for $500,000?

If you want to know, watch the presentation. And then ask specific questions that cannot be answered with "We ...". Who? the past board? The Superintendent?
