SCHOOL BREAKFAST
SUCCESS STORY
For some strange reason students in the morning did not eat breakfast that was provided in the cafeteria. I think it was because they were afraid to eat around their peers for fear they may laugh at them. The team got together and we decided to implement the universal breakfast program which allowed them to eat breakfast in the classroom. Since we've implemented this, 95% of the students in the building are eating breakfast.
