BCSD students have a special "quest" next week: eat breakfast in their school cafeterias!

The week of March 2 is National School Breakfast Week, an annual celebration that is held the first full week of March. The week promotes the importance of school breakfasts and how they impact student health and academic success.

The School Breakfast Program provides 16 million nutritious breakfasts to hungry children across the country every day. These breakfasts tend to be more nutritious than the average breakfast a child gets from home or a convenient fast-food restaurant.

This year’s theme is “The Quest for School Breakfast,” and Berkeley County School District’s Child Nutrition Services team has some special activities in store for students.

Getting breakfast at school can earn students the chance to win some prizes that week; Child Nutrition Services was able to score some fun items to give out using Cool School points. Students should be aware of the following opportunities to win prizes:

Throughout the week, daily prizes will be given out at each school.

Big prizes include earbuds, televisions, tablets and more!

One “Big Winner” per School will be drawn at the end of the week. Parents to be notified the following week. Prizes and pictures will be done at the school.

Students are encouraged to eat a school breakfast every day during National School Breakfast Week to increase their chances of taking home a big prize.

Thank you, BCSD CNS, for all that you do!
