It seems insane, but true. My youngest son goes to the local school for Pre-K. He starts at 9:30 and gets out at 3:30. In six hours he is fed a breakfast and a lunch. Both free.
Hey it’s nice you have a boy that age :)
As for the free breakfast and lunch, they’re gonna give them either way so if it saves you a few bucks, screw it :)
It’s not the cost so much that bothers me, it’s just something I would have pictured hitler implementing as another way to take power away from the parents.
