school lunch in elementary school.

hi there!! today I watched TV about school lunch in elementary school. in one private elementary school in Kyoto, children have school lunches, which are cooked by chefs from a famous hotel. That sounds great, but actually there is a problem. the charge for school lunches are twice as expensive as that in other schools. for that, some parents in that school don't pay any money. now teachers are much in trouble because even though they don't pay the charge, teachers have to provide a school lunch to all students. I was very surprised to hear that. the parents should pay money, they must know the school has such a special school lunch program...
