Hi Vikrant,
Yes, I am the person you should talk to regarding those issues. I'd be
happy to talk with you -- either in person or on the phone. I'm at BHS
pretty often. So just let me know when you'd like to talk.
Have a good weekend,
Sonya
I got this email to which i have responded with times i could meet. Also stating if none of those work i would call.
Other than that, i had an informal interview with Mr. Butchart while he was regulating the flow of students in to the food section. He said that this new system was instituted by Mr. Mason. He said it was because with the new system they could better regulate students and monitor them in light of a theft increase. He also indicated that the new system was meant to make the process faster and deal with the mass congestion in the food pick up area.
So maybe i should focus the change on like a 3 lunch system. From just going to Brookline high i have noticed that the class sizes are getting progressively bigger. So in a while these lines will be just completely ridiculous. However i do not know haw accurate this notion is, but i guess we will see when i talk with Ms. Elder.
I need to just hijack some of Mr. Mason's time at some point and ask him the thought process.

Yes, talk with Ms. Elder--quickly! Talk with Mr. Mason--quickly. Mr. Mason can also give you projected enrollment stats, which will help you figure out when we'll be totally maxed out for space in the caf. If we need three lunches, when will lunch #1 start?
How do other large schools handle this?
Its good that you got to speak with Mr. Buchart. I (personally) would find it interesting to hear what he (or any other teacher in charge) would have to say about the lack of food left over once student get out of the lines. What can the cafeteria staff do about this? Good luck!
I agree with Marni. Are there some more food/ snack items that the cafeteria can make available to students? Or could the school store go on the same payment system as the cafeteria for food? Colleges have that kind of thing. I hope your meeting with her goes well!
A three lunch system is probably not the most ideal because it messes with the schedule, which no one likes, and will inevitably either make the school day longer or the lunches shorter. Also look into the lines at the sandwich bar, the traffic at the restaurant and the vending machines and the school store to see how it compares to the cafeteria or how some people are dealing with this crazy overcrowding crisis!
