β€œSometimes they miss breakfast at home…and they can feel like they’re safe here, to have food here, and not worry about being hungry,” says Susie Judge, school nutrition manager. β€œIt’s great that we give them free meals, and they don’t have to worry about having to buy breakfast.”

Hosmer Elementary School takes breakfast seriously. Shortly before 8am, school nutrition staff prepared to welcome hungry students to their breakfast cart before classes began. As soon as the bell rang, students lined up to get their French toast sticks, cereal, and fruit to fuel their days.

A nutritious morning meal helps sharpen focus, boost energy, and support overall well-being. Since Massachusetts began offering free school meals to all students, 73,500 more children are enjoying school breakfast daily (comparing October 2019 to October 2023).

🍳 Happy National School Breakfast Week! We're celebrating the incredible benefits of free school breakfast for students. As Christina Follis, Cafeteria Manager at Clark Avenue Middle School, says, β€œKids need to start their day with breakfast. Going to class hungry is not an option.”

Every great quest begins with preparation. For students, that prep is a nutritious school breakfast that fuels focus and learning. Yet too many children are still missing out because barriers stand in the way. During #NSBW, we are focused on clearing the path. frac.org/research/res...
