A Rhode Island public school district has decided to change its policy regarding serving a separate cold meal to students with lunch debt
and to"allow students their choice of lunch regardless of their account status."
Warwick Public School caused an uproar last week, when it announced that any students with unpaid balances on their lunch accounts would receive a sunflower seed butter and jelly sandwich until their balance was paid.Several parents were furious about the district's decision to give those students in the district south of Providence a limited midday meal option. They called it lunch shaming. The Warwick School Committee approved the policy on Tuesday, according to CNN affiliate WPRI.
