A school district in Ohio has changed their lunch policy after a student had his hot meal taken away over a $9.75 unpaid balance. According to the boy's grandmother, the incident occurred on his birthday, Aug. 30.
Bailey has enrolled Sharpnack in the free and reduced lunch program, according to Fox 8, and she was informed that she would be able to write a check for any unpaid balance that may occur while they waited for the paperwork to process. Now, she believes the school district bullied her grandson. After Bailey's story sparked concern on social media, other parents made claims that similar incidents have happened to their children at Green Local School District schools.
