The Breakfast Effect

School Breakfast Programs have the potential to help children learn and grow.  Breakfast supports children in body and mind. 

Studies have linked breakfast to: improved nutrition, healthier weight, better cognitive functioning and memory, and increased academic achievement and test grades.  The National School Breakfast Program is uniquely positioned to increase the number of children who eat a healthy breakfast, preparing students to be motivated in school and ready to learn. 

Learn more about the research behind the School Breakfast Program and see what you can do to increase access to and participation in school breakfast for children in your community and across the United States. This video series provides resources that will help you gain buy-in from your school communities, and tools to help build or expand your school's Breakfast Program.
