Our School Lunchroom There are two things I want to tell you about our school lunchroom. One, Mrs. Grayson was the first cook to work there. Students remembered her lunches because the food tasted terrible. Two, the student leaders at our school had an odd sense of humor. They decided to name the lunchroom after Mrs. Grayson. Mrs. Grayson also had a strange idea. Her idea was to tell students where to sit in the lunchroom. So, at the start of each school year, every student gets a number. The number matches a number on a lunchroom table. Students have to sit at the same table for the entire school year. Mrs. Grayson’s idea was to help students make new friends. On the first day of school, I saw Jack Lloyd walking toward me. He’s my friend. He’s also the tallest player on our basketball team. Jack smiled. Then, he raised up his hand to slap mine — to give me a high-five. “Darion! How was your summer, man” Jack missed my hand. He banged the locker behind me and put a big dent in it. “Great,” I answered, grinning back at him. “You” Jack talked about how hard he worked at basketball camp. As I listened, I searched for the paper with my lunchroom table number on it. I finally found it and showed Jack: lucky number seven. 3
4 Jack and Darion will sit at table number seven in the lunchroom this year.
