I’ve always had this question about exclusive private schools for extremely rich kids, like kids from multi-multi-millionaire families. This question applies to private schools from elementary to high school. Do their private chefs just pack them lunches, or do private schools have high-end food for lunch in the cafeterias?

    We send my son to private school. It’s not for multimillionaires, but it’s basically the cost of a second mortgage. We make his lunch every morning. Today it was a bean taco with cantaloupe, olives, cherry tomatoes, and cheese crackers.

    I went to a fancy boarding school growing up. The food was average. It was made by a staff for almost 200 kids, so they didn’t really seem to go out of their way to make it special except for around the holidays.

    Most kids kept snacks back in the room because they didn’t like the food.

    Don’t know but if it helps, they usually send their kids to boarding school in the UK or Switzerland afaik. My guess is they probably do have cafeterias and it’s likely not high dining. Probably good quality food and decent cooks, but nothing extravagant.

      Is probably the cheapest they can get away with and they charge like it’s pure saffron. Capitalism! Or Communism! They both suck.
