All through high school, students dream of McDonald’ s for lunch instead of school lunches. , they don’t have that opportunity here. They have to what the school has provided for them. In my opinion, they deserve to have lunches outside of the school.
By teens to spend lunchtime outside, the school could save a lot of money, which could be used to more school programs. As we know, school lunches are subsidized（补贴）by the government. That’s why food in school is sold . If students are able to go outside at noon, the school will spend less money on the program. And the school can use the money saved for things, such as sports equipment or new books.
If students are able to have lunch outside of the school, they will get more about how the real world works. If they stand in a cafeteria line every day, they won’t have the to get involved in wider society. Students, those who are about to graduate, need to know what to expect when they’re on their own. Eating outside makes it possible for them to more of the outside world.
It is for the school to place more trust in teens. They should be trusted enough to eat out and on time. School officials argue that they’re making sure children are by keeping them in school since they’re worried that something might happen to children. Of course, lunch rush can be , especially if teens race outside and back to school at the expected time. But the students are now enough to be responsible for their own behavior. All teens have been taught to road rules when they are outside alone.
, the school should let students go outside for lunch. It gives students a sense of and responsibility, and they deserve to be trusted.
