National School Breakfast Week is taking place March 5-9 with this year’s theme being “I Heart School Breakfast.” Did you know, students who eat school breakfast are more likely to score higher on standardized tests, have better concentration and memory, be more alert, and maintain a healthy weight?! With hectic mornings, your child has healthy breakfast options available at school! Keep an eye out for some of our most popular breakfast items this week as well as a couple of new items. Students will also have the opportunity to participate in activities and receiving giveaways during breakfast this week.
