Sheila is a middle-aged employee at Degrassi Community School. She is the lunch lady. Over the years, she was accused of placing earwigs in the lunch food, which led to Spinner boycotting the 'caf'. Also, Emma protested again GM foods, which led to another boycott. Both were unsuccessful. Sheila is a proud lunch lady, and even if her food isn't the best, Sheila likes pleasing the kids of Degrassi.
