Breakfast - The Most Important Meal of the Day!

Breakfast really is the most important meal of the day for kids, as it provides the necessary energy to get set for a day of learning and achievement.  Some of the benefits of eating school breakfast include:

Higher Academic Scores - studies have shown eating breakfast at school results in higher test scores.

Improved Behavior - Hungry children are more likely to have discipline problems. 

Reduced Tardiness - Kids who eat school breakfast are late or absent from school less often.

Convenient and Value for Parents - School breakfast is ideal for busy families trying to get out the door quickly in the mornings, and is offered at a great price.

Health and Nutrition:

In early 2012, the USDA unveiled new nutrition standards for school meals (like breakfast) that prompted healthy changes in school cafeterias nationwide. Under the new standards, schools are: Offering more fruits and vegetables; increasing whole grain-rich foods; switching to fat-free or lowfat milk; limiting calories based on the age of children being served to ensure proper portion size; reducing the amounts of saturated fat, trans fats and sodium.
