Breakfast Programs
Breakfast Programs
Studies show an increase in both attention skills and knowledge retention when children begin their day with a balanced, nutritious breakfast. Furthermore, children who skip breakfast are at a higher risk for obesity due to overeating later in the day, slower metabolisms and the tendency to choose less healthy food options.
Whitsons School Nutrition offers our school communities a variety of breakfast service options that will benefit their students and support the goals of the school nutrition program. Depending on the school’s individual needs, we can offer breakfast in the classroom, continental breakfast in the café and/or various hot breakfast options. Under each scenario, breakfast options vary daily and conform to state and federal requirements. We customize our breakfast programs based on each school’s serving times, space constraints and other parameters to maximize participation.
