Minnesota lawmakers approved changes to school meal programs that stops what many advocates call “lunch shaming.” And there’s hope more steps will be taken to make free school lunches permanent.<\/p>\n

Colleen Moriarty said she\u2019s been working for the last decade to make sure public school students are no longer embarrassed because they can\u2019t afford their lunch bill.<\/p>\n

“Ten years ago we heard about snapping rubber bands on kids\u2019 wrists, collection agencies going after families\u2026lunches being dumped in front of kids,” Moriarty said. “Or, you get to enter your code for lunch and they say \u2018oh no, I\u2019ll take that lunch from you\u2026you can just have this cheese sandwich \u2026or you can have this cheese sandwich and eat it in the principal\u2019s office.\u2019”<\/p>\n

But a new education finance bill passed by state lawmakers changes how schools deal with students with lunch debts.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The move from state lawmakers comes after the Biden administration gave school districts nationwide the greenlight to continue offering free lunches for students until the end of the 2022 school year.<\/p>\n
