Breakfast-Still the Most Important Meal of the Day:

Research shows:

• Kids who eat breakfast tend to show improved cognitive function, attention & memory skills while having greater attendance rates and fewer disciplinary issues

• Breakfast improves the overall nutrient intake for both children & adults

• Breakfast cereals encourage the consumption of milk which is an effective way to increase calcium & Vitamin D intake

• Children & Adults who eat breakfast tend to have healthier body weights

Make time for breakfast every day. If your busy schedule does not allow for a breakfast at home for your student, we offer breakfast daily at each school. Remember, mom always said “breakfast is the most important meal of the day”.
