...and here is our cafeteria In spite of the fact that about 1400 people eat lunch here every school day, two shifts manage to get service quickly and easily with a minium of confusion. And the best part of the story is that the food is good, day in and day out. Then, on special days, turkey, chicken, and other delicious foods are served. And the line marches on Wubby and companions make quite a hit in the cafeteria. we are very lucky because we have a modern, well-equipped cafeteria, staffed by competent managers. Menus are announced ahead of time, so that students know when favorite foods are to be served. Three lunch lines move through the cafe- teria, past the serving counters, and back to the tables, making it easy for all to be served in a minimum of time. Service in the cafeteria is just one more phase of the school program that helps make going to Junior High a real pleasure. Chefs at work! 32
