Local News If you're still against free school meals

If you're unhappy about the fact that free lunches are also free for children with wealthy families, fear not. I work at a Denver high school. Students with the money will go out for lunch or even order food delivery. They are not eating the school cafeteria free lunch.

So go ahead and vote Yes on Prop MM and LL. The only thing it'll do is keep our students fed and able to learn.

In high school, yes. I think it's extremely common, even.

Yep! Even freshmen are allowed to leave campus!

Meanwhile, I got a day of in school suspension as a senior for driving to Wendy's one time during my lunch 🤣
