Thank you to our wonderful kitchen staff who serve breakfast at each of our buildings.

Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day, especially for students. If your student doesn't have time to each breakfast at home, they can eat breakfast at school. Eating breakfast can benefit them in many ways throughout the school day. They are able to concentrate better, are more alert, and can have better test scores!
