When having a nutritious breakfast, it improves attendance, decreases tardiness and behavior.  Students have better attention and memory and score higher on tests. The cafeteria will be celebrating national school breakfast week with special menus each morning for breakfast. Monday-cream cheese filled mini bagels.
