Students purchase donuts from the PTSO

Donuts have fewer nutrients than Chick-fil-a biscuits, yet students were allowed to buy donuts before school.

On January 28, 29 and 30, the PTSO sold donuts to students before school.

However, Chick-fil-a biscuits and other “unhealthy” foods have been banned from the school. This decision to allow donuts makes absolutely no sense.

Vending machines offering fat free chips and wheat grain snacks have been shut down during school hours, too, but donuts were made available.

Even though the sale of donuts was for only three days, the popularity of donuts was so large that some students bought 10 at a time for their breakfasts.

Senior Sarah Snyder said, “I think it’s ridiculous that we are not allowed to sell chicken biscuits before school anymore, but they are allowed to sell donuts. I do agree it is nice to have the option of buying donuts, but the reasoning behind  not having fries or Chick-fil-a doesn’t make sense.”
