Are school lunches leaving you hungry?
Watch the video below…
You probably recognize the song being parodied—Fun.’s “We
Are Young”—with one substantial change: new lyrics written by Wallace County
High School English teacher Linda O’Connor, reports Time. She and a group of her students created the video to show how
the government’s new school lunch policies are negatively affecting them. While
the group is vehement in its support of the increased emphasis on fresh fruits
and veggies, it believes this one-size-fits-all mandate doesn’t take into
account the varying needs of students across the U.S. Their goal? To repeal the
legislation.
Have you been affected by the new school lunch policy, sweeties? What do you think of the video, and how do you think the problem should be fixed?
