Alexis Hernandez is a sophomore at North high school and says that she would like “More choices” during the school lunch. Open lunch would open up more opportunities to get the food that students are craving. Another anonymous student at North high school says that only one of the lunches (categorized as A) is “crowded”.

Having an open lunch will give students at North high school the opportunity to get a time away from the crowd and be able to find a variety of food to please their cravings. Some problems that occur with having an open lunch according to an anonymous sophomore at North high school could be “safety issues” and “kids being late to classes” after lunch. If students at North go out to get lunch and a line at the restaurant they are at could have a long line causing the student to be late to their next class. Of course this could be prevented if the student went to a different place to get food.
