  Case: Lunch time
I have a student who comes to class without a lunch 2/5 days a week. Stating he either forgot his lunch or his parents forgot to give him money. What should I do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would first consult with the student and try and understand the real reason behind why he has not brought in lunches. If the student does not feel comfortable talking, I would do the research myself. Find out what you can do as a teacher to help the student receive the free or reduced lunch and breakfast at your school. Maybe write a note to the parents explaining the free breakfast and lunch program.

Comments: I would confront the situation similarly. Suggesting Free-Reduced Lunch to parents is tricky, but will be beneficial to the student.
