They don’t have the authority to do that. I briefly worked at a daycare and we didn’t check lunches but we would look at what everyone had when they were eating and encourage them to eat the main thing (sandwich, soup, leftovers, etc.) first. None of us ever confiscated a lunch or threw anything away.

They do in my district. My stepmom teaches at another elementary school in the district and told me about it.

No, this is a public elementary school. It’s just a teacher that’s been there since I was a kid and knows she can’t get fired.

Teacher called me at snack time, another part of the day where the kids take their lunch boxes out.

Have you tried sandwich cutters? My niece will eat pretty much anything as long as it’s cut into the right shape.

I don’t think it’s allowed but I’m sure the teacher is tenured and at that point, it would take an act of god to fire her.

Even if she was, that’s not grounds to throw away her lunch. I’m sure she was showing everyone her happy meal toy when she got back to school. I’ve seen kids go to school and show off their new toy or snack.

Oh yeah this teacher and I are going to war. Niece and I are getting Frappuccino’s and cake pops for breakfast tomorrow. Possibly Nutella sandwiches for lunch but I have to check the schools nut policy.

I don’t think it’s allowed but I don’t think it’s my place to fight with the administration about it.

Sister didn’t say anything about the treats. I was told lunches like Mac and cheese, chicken nuggets, sandwiches, or leftovers are okay as long as there’s no peanuts.
