FREEBIES!!!

[Gonz]

SEPTEMBER 12TH, 2003

There's no such thing as a free lunch, but Schools Chancellor Joel Klein said Friday, starting immediately, there will now be free breakfast for the city's more than 1.1 million students.

Klein said any student, regardless of need, can show up early on any school day for a healthy breakfast.

However, there will be a slight hike in school lunch prices for children not eligible for reduced-price lunch. The price will rise from $1 to $1.50.

It's all part of an effort by the Department of Education to encourage eligible families to apply for the school meal program.

So, you should now stop feeding you kids breakfast and let the school do it, thereby saving you the money you'll need to pay the higher lunch costs. Yup, there's an economics major at work in that office, I'll tell ya.

Next year, It'll be Free Nikes....

Aren't they already free? I thougth that was the entire point of "Let's have a Riot" day. Especially popular in towns with sports teams.
