Idiot
There is no stigma now. Kids don't pay for lunches like we did growing up. Instead they all have a PIN number they enter. If you are a kid who has to pay for lunches, the amount of that lunch is deducted from your lunch account. When the money gets low in that account the parent (that's me) gets a auto phone call from the school saying that their kid's account is low and needs to have some money deposited into it.
Kids on free lunch enter in a PIN number just like everyone else except they actually don't have an account. And from what I understand, oftentimes the kid doesn't even know they are on free lunch.

not every school is like that.
the HS i went to had us but lunch tickets. the kids on free lunch had different color tickets iirc.
also, the N in PIN stands for number... you don't need to put in your PIN Number at the ATM machines.
