"AURORA, Colo. — A Colorado mother claims a teacher at her child's preschool refused to let the little girl eat part of her lunch because it wasn't nutritious.

Leeza Pearson, of Aurora, Colo., is upset her child wasn't allowed to finish part of her lunch.

Pearson packed her 5-year-old daughter a ham and cheese sandwich, string cheese and a 4-pack of Oreos on Friday. The child came back home from Children's Academy with the Oreos and a note from her teacher which read, in part:

   "Dear Parents, it is very important that all students have a nutritious lunch. This is a public school setting and all children are required to have a fruit, a vegetable and a heavy snack from home, along with a milk. If they have potatoes, the child will also need bread to go along with it. Lunchables, chips, fruit snacks, and peanut butter are not considered to be a healthy snack. This is a very important part of our program and we need everyone's participation.""

I'd tell that school they are in the business of TEACHING, not supervising lunch.  Things have gone too far when a school thinks it is their job to police a child's lunch, especially one packed at home!

Dear teacher.  From now on you are required to provide my child with a lunch at no cost to me or the taxpayers.

PS.  Mind your own fucking business

I have yet to see a school district (either in written guidelines or in practice) reliably serve what I would consider to be a healthy lunch.

I looked at the Aurora public school menu.
Here are some of the choices:





Breakfast: french toast, cinni-minis, bagels, pancakes, waffles, breakfast pizza

Lunch: calzones, hamburger, fish tacos, turkey wrap, pizza, fried chicken tenders, pocket burger




Apparently only government carbs are nutritious.

LOL.....did this problem start way back when someone brought a PB&J sandwich to school?  What's next?

Korean kids can't bring Kim Chee to school because other students complain that it stinks?
White kids can't bring a lunch of fried chicken and watermelon to school because it's considered "racist?"
Laotian and VN kids can't bring fried goat to school becaue it's considered "not right to eat a goat?"

Article quote fail. The next paragraph of the article (that was omitted from the OP) reads:

Questions over the note remain. Brenda Dean, the director of Children's Academy, a private preschool program through Aurora Public Schools, said she is investigating the note, adding that it should not have gone out to any parent.

Not a public program

Where is GD saying "if you want to eat Oreos FO and don't come back"
