The problem with our cafeteria is that its so small and not very efficient. The lunchrooms are crowded because there are so many students. They used to let the juniors out for lunch along with the seniors but now they only let the seniors out. The lunchrooms have become even more crowded since they stopped letting the juniors out for lunch. What I want to do is extend the first floor lunchrooms to be partially outside so that the students have a feel of the outdoors and have a lot more room.

I love the idea of extending the lunchroom for an outdoor feeling. More explanation of the current problem should have been included.
