L-M Celebrates School Breakfast Week

This year’s School Breakfast Week theme is  “Take Off with School Breakfast,” it reminds our entire Linn-Mar community that school breakfast provides a healthy and energizing start to the day for students. Studies show that students who eat school breakfast are more likely to:

• Reach higher levels of achievement in reading and math
• Score higher on standardized tests
• Have better concentration and memory
• Be more alert
• Maintain a healthy weight

“A healthy breakfast at the start of the day is a great way to ensure students are nourished and ready to learn,” says Stacy Fish, Linn-Mar Nutrition Services Manager. “National School Breakfast Week helps us educate parents and students about all the nutritious and delicious choices we offer.”

Breakfast is available for all students in the cafeteria at all twelve Linn-Mar schools before classes start for the day.

Members of our Nutrition Services Team are promoting the week in some creative ways!
