I think i was a junior in HS before I figured out you could get breakfast at school. But you had to get their early and we had morning practice for soccer. That plus the social stigma of eating breakfast at school. I seem to recall that the "Cool" kids didn't bother with breakfast.

When my nephew was in Kindergarten, he had the afternoon session, so his mother prepared him a hot lunch and sent him off to school.

Well, it seems that there were "poor" kids that came to school earlier and got their hot lunch at school. It was then determined that it was discriminatory to make the "poor" kids come to school earlier than the others, so the choice was made to have all children come early. However, only hot lunch was provided the "poor" kids. The rest including my nephew had to sit and eat a cold sack lunch prepared by their mother, while watching the "poor" kids eat their hot lunch. And all in the name of fairness.
