Lunch times in elementary schools

["Ronnie O'Brien" <kiddylit@MSGTO.COM>]

At lunch today some teachers were discussing wishes for next year and the idea of 
rotating the lunch waves on a yearly basis so that first grades do not eat lunch at 
11 next year (makes for a LONG afternoon) came up and also the idea for multiage 
lunch waves - One of each grade level in a lunch wave instead of all fourth graders 
together etc.  Does any one know of any research that would support later lunches 
for younger children or multiage groupings in the lunch room - the principal of 
this school does not enertain new ideas that are not supported by research;)
