The child was supposed to be “reduced” to a cheese sandwich and carton of milk for lunch. But worried that he might be teased by other children for the paltry meals, Brame continued to feed the child the normal menu at Hudson Elementary School.

Who, me???? Irony and sarcasm?

Okay then you'll love Rebecca and everybody there... snarky humor is being perfected there
Bur yeah I think that lady is one of those quiet unsung heroes. To me the small good things that people do and never tell about are golden. I just wish she didn't have to get caught in order for us to know.

these are the types of artickles i like reading.

you should share more of them

and yeah i agree... i'm glad she got her job back- i think it was unfair for her to lose it in the first place
