Food Fights
In the 2007-2008 school year, 7th graders in the Stroudsburg Middle School participated in a food fight on the last day of school with lunch, which resulted in one teacher fracturing her leg and one student with a concussion. After this incident, more security guards have been dispatched into the Stroudsburg Intermediate Elementary School, Stroudsburg Middle School, Stroudsburg Junior High School, and Stroudsburg High School during lunch periods. Schools have threatened students who participate in a food fight with suspension or expulsion.

Famous quotes containing the words food and/or fights:
“Life is a thin narrowness of taken-for-granted, a plank over a canyon in a fog. There is something under our feet, the taken-for-granted. A table is a table, food is food, we are we—because we don’t question these things. And science is the enemy because it is the questioner. Faith saves our souls alive by giving us a universe of the taken-for-granted.”
—Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)
“A man is but an ass
Who fights in a cuirass,”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
