(3 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Hey I like my school but the lessons are so boring and I don't feel challenged! And the lunches are so sick! I find hair in my food and the lunch ladies don't were hair nets! And in the milk is spolied and I told a teacher and he didn't CARE! I was so mad! And they don't let us do anything like no field trips and no nothing! So I feel like our school is in need of improving! But I like talking to my friends (but i never get to)!

- The school lunches are not enough. The lunches aren't very healthy either. We feel like we don't get challenged in school. It is very easy.
