There are many more important things to consider when examining the effectiveness of a school and the education it provides your children than the quality of the cafeteria and food being prepared for your children.

But, the little things can definitely contribute to how happy your child is at school and Niche.com has ranked tens of thousands of public high school cafeterias in the United States to determine, which ones are the best.

Niche.com also did a statewide ranking. Nationally, Connecticut had four public high schools crack the top 100 list.

McFatter Technical Center in Florida, Itineris Early College High School in Utah, Cambridge Rindge and Latin School in Massachusetts, Adlai E.
