Access to Healthy Foods

We provided a healthy oatmeal and fruit breakfast for everyone to promote eating a healthy breakfast every day. Our team later asked the students who participated how they felt that morning after eating a healthy breakfast. Their responses were very positive and they loved it!

How did students and adults work together as a team?

We planned, organized, and served students together as a team.

How did you accomplish your goals?

By checking in with the students who participated to make sure they knew the importance of the healthy breakfast and the effects of eating healthy.

What improvements have you seen at your school?

We have seen an increase of breakfast students at school and they love being a part of our school breakfast program. If I ask the students why they need breakfast, they can tell me because it wakes up the brain and gets them ready for the day.
