Mom Pays Off Every Student's Balance Following Denial of School Lunch to Son

Here's a feel good story, but it needs to be followed up with an article written by an investigative journalist. 

They need to find out who authorized the posting of the kids names, on what I presume was school district letterhead.  Is there an actual policy that mandates after several attempts to contact parents of the balance due the student will have their name posted.  They need to find out what policy authorizes food to be taken away and thrown in the trashcan.  If there is no policy the staff member needs to be retrained and instructed to follow school district policy.  If there is a policy it should be in writing and available for parents and students to view.  This was not just the actions of one staff member at the school.  Unless the cafeteria workers operate as an entirely separate entity than the rest of the school.  How have school districts become extremely powerful and above question that journalists are afraid to question them?  They need to check out the school board minutes as well.  School Districts operate more like secret societies rather than institutes of learning.
