Parents say they were disappointed by an emotional meeting with Cracker Barrel executives a week after a group of special education students were turned away from dine-in service at the restaurant's location in Waldorf,

The staffers have reportedly been fired after the group was allegedly refused dine-in service at a Maryland restaurant on Dec. 3

The old-timey-themed restaurant chain got negative attention for the Dec. 3 incident, which involved a group of 11 students and seven staff members from the Charles County Public Schools ACHIEVE Program. As a result, the company said it fired the Waldorf, Maryland store's General Manager and two other team members.
