Benefits of School Breakfast

Research shows that children who participate in school breakfast:

• are less likely to experience food insecurity,
• are better able to learn,
• are less likely to be overweight,
• exhibit better behavior at school,
• consume a healthier overall diet,
• demonstrate improved academic performance, and
• are less likely to be late to or absent from school.
