难得好校长，德克萨斯州学校校长每天给400多名学生做早餐

Every morning, the Meade Elementary school cafeteria is usually bustling with kids, hungry for breakfast. On Wednesday, the cafeteria was short staffed, but there were still hundreds of students who needed to be fed.

每天早晨，米德小学的自助餐厅里通常都是饿腹的孩子们在吃早餐。周三，食堂人手不足，但仍有数百名学生需要吃饭。

With several employees out on sick leave, the cafeteria was about to get chaotic. Three lines of kids would have to turn into one, and breakfast would get backed up.

由于有几名员工请病假，餐厅变得混乱不堪。原本排成三个队的孩子变成了一排，吃早餐耽误的时间也更长了。

Principal Annette Lopez knew that out of 750 students at her school, about 400 of them received breakfast from the cafeteria -- the most out of all the schools in the district. So, she threw on a hairnet, some gloves and an apron, and started serving the kids herself.

校长安妮特·洛佩斯知道学校750名学生中，大约有400人要到该地区学校中最受欢迎的自助餐厅吃早餐后，她亲自戴上发网、手套和围裙，开始为孩子们服务。

When you serve that many students, there is no way that one line is just going to do it, Lopez told local reporters. "I loved it and the kids had fun, one of the kids said, ’Hey, I know you,’ and I said, ’Yes, I’m the principal.’"

洛佩兹在接受当地记者采访时说:“没有什么方法能比这个更能为这些学生们服务。”“我喜欢这样做，孩子们也吃的很愉快，有时有的孩子会说‘嘿，我认识你，’我说，‘是的，我是校长。’”

Despite being the principal, Lopez did not feel she was too high on the totem pole to serve food. In fact, she felt it was her duty to put on a hairnet and help out.

尽管身为校长，洛佩兹并不觉得为孩子们做早餐是在降低自己的身价。事实上，她觉得自己有责任戴上发网伸出援手。

The kids loved it. They were like, ’Ms. Lopez, I didn’t know you were a cafeteria lady, too.’ And so I kept telling them, ’You know, principals do whatever it takes,’ Lopez said. "It got around to the teachers, and that’s when they started taking pictures."

“孩子们很喜欢。他们会这样和我说，‘洛佩兹，我不知道你也是自助餐厅的女士。所以我一直告诉他们，‘你们知道，校长可以做任何事。’”“这让老师们也感到很兴奋，这个时候他们也会拍照。”

A photo of Lopez behind the counter, plating eggs for kids, was posted on the elementary school’s Twitter. Within 24 hours, it had 300 likes. She became a bit of a local celebrity when her teachers and students began spreading the picture.

当一张洛佩兹站在柜台后为孩子们准备鸡蛋的照片在学校的推特上发布后，24小时内就获得了300个赞。当她的老师和学生开始传播这张照片时，她成了当地的名人。

Lopez said it’s really her staff at Mead Elementary School that deserve credit for supporting their students everyday.

洛佩兹说，在米德小学的工作人员才真的值得表扬，因为他们每天都在服务这些学生们。
