We have a similar system where parents come in every night and bring us free dinner, and also free lunch during weekends and holidays. We have a calendar online where parents log in and sign up for supervising, and along with signing up to bring food in for the entire 6-week period. Beside the refrigerator that usually stores our left over food, there is another cabinet where students can pay to have snacks during the day. We started this system ever since we found out the correlation between the amounts of food we have vs. time students willing to spend in GRT. So there are no worries about what to eat, or when to eat since parents take care of everything. And finally, this method eliminates unhealthy food because the parents have all the power in what food to bring.
Parents really contribute their time and effort to make sure the kids really have a great time working with the team, and I thank them deeply for that...
