I'm not familiar with US Private vs. Public schools so which one requires you to pay for the lunch? In many countries in Europe there are only public schools.

- cwmma 4y agoA public school in America (but not in England) is a state run school which may or may not have free lunches (it's often income related), Private schools are ones you pay to go to and tend to charge for food or order out for food.
- dhosek 4y agoIt’s not often income-related, it’s always income-related. All public schools offer free/reduced price lunches and even schools in high-income areas will have some small number of students who qualify: https://high-schools.com/directory/ca/cities/beverly-hills/beverly-hills-high-school/60483000471/ https://high-schools.com/directory/ca/cities/beverly-hills/b... Although, after googling highest-income school district in the US, not all school districts do: https://high-schools.com/directory/ny/school-districts/scarsdale-union-free-school-district/662001030000/ https://high-schools.com/directory/ny/school-districts/scars...
- cwmma 4y agoI would have said that but for the email I recently got informing me that all students were getting free lunchs in my son's district. I think it's a covid related state program maybe?
- vmilner 4y agoI’m not saying you’re wrong but it surprises me that there are many countries in Europe with no (or even very few) private schools - are you thinking of Former soviet bloc countries?
