Parent threatened by school district over $7.30 school lunch bill

Parent threatened by school district over $7.30 school lunch bill

His mother says her son became so uncomfortable after being questioned by cafeteria workers about his unpaid lunch bill.

"He even came to me and said, 'Well, I don't want to go to lunch, I'll just skip lunch.' He didn't want the other kids knowing that we owed money," said Paul's mother, Kelly Behill.

But the real shocker was when Kelly received a letter from Beardsley School District telling her to cough up $7.30--or risk being referred to Child Protective Services. The letter goes on to say the student's report card or diploma could be withheld or a student could be denied from participating in extra curricular activities.
