Jarrett J. Krosoczka: Why lunch ladies are heroes

In 2001, the author revisited his elementary school and met his old lunch lady, Jeannie, which inspired him to create the Lunch Lady graphic novel series. The series, featuring a lunch lady superhero, was well-received by children and lunch staff, who felt acknowledged. This led to the creation of School Lunch Hero Day, celebrating the vital role of lunch staff. The video highlights stories of lunch staff heroism and emphasizes the power of gratitude.
