The Bulldog Bulletin

We all grew up hearing that familiar phrase,
"Breakfast is the most important meal of the day".

It seems that our grandparents and parents drilled it into our brains ... and in fact, studies show that 93% of Americans would concur that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Starting the day with a nutritious breakfast puts fuel in the tank, jump starts your metabolism and gives the brain the energy it needs to do the important work of the day. And yet, only 44% of Americans report starting their day with breakfast on a regular basis. With that groundwork already in place, with more than half of all Americans routinely skipping breakfast, our challenge with School Breakfast is to teach our youth a better way. We want to make a healthy breakfast an absolute "must do" part of the day. Celebrating National School Breakfast Week gives us an opportunity to get the word out. All across the country this week, School Nutrition Directors and nutrition advocates are getting the message out: on television talk shows, social media, articles in the news.

The story is this: School Breakfast Changes Lives!

School Breakfast Facts

1. Students who eat breakfast have better attention and memory.
2. Students who eat school breakfast attend, on average, 1.5 more days of school per year and score 17.5% higher on standardized math tests.
3. The School Breakfast Program significantly improves the cognitive abilities and learning capacities of children.
4. Students who participate in school breakfast show improved attendance, behavior, standardized achievement test scores, and decreased tardiness.
