Please look for your Breakfast Survey!

At our PCA meeting on Wednesday, Principal Adam Frankel announced that the annual Breakfast Survey would be sent home soon.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU COMPLETE YOUR BREAKFAST SURVEY.

Recently, USA Today reported on a survey showing that 2/3rds of students come to school hungry.  Most schools in our country participate not just in the school lunch program but the breakfast program as well and there are a number of ways to implement the program.  The USDA provides a great survey to use in class to find out if our kids come to school without breakfast for whatever reason,

In our school, the students who currently qualify for a free lunch are also entitled to a free breakfast -- if our school implements a program.  If there is no response to the survey, we will not get breakfast in our school.

We have a lot more information here on the school breakfast program and the importance of breakfast.

Or check out the posts from the week of June 5 for healthy, quick breakfast ideas you can make at home.
