When I was in elementary school, the only reason I was able to eat despite not having money in my account some days was because the lunch lady was nice and waived me since she knew I would eventually put the funds in.
By middle school, they just stopped having a functional ID scanning machine despite giving us new IDs each year, and we would have to manually punch in our numbers
It's great that you start out and you're like +oooh the panopticon oooooh discipline and punish but then once you know what it is you realize it's everywhere and it's completely banal and miserable and there's no romance to it, of course children are just a string of numbers to be indexed, monitored, and controlled.
if it were that... it would make more sense.
Its probably just trying to make sure that every cent that can be cut from the school breakfast/lunch program, is cut from the school breakfast/lunch program.
I live in Canada. When I was in school, if you didn’t have money or didn’t bring your own lunch you just didn’t eat.
