The district wide Grab n Go Breakfast program has exceeded our expectations. We now have Grab n Go Breakfast in every building, with breakfast in the classroom for sixth grade students at Bell Herron Middle School. The numbers are staggering with an increase in every building for breakfast participation. (Every building has increased more than 40% over last year's numbers except for 1 school.) Student Council members at the middle school wear shirts to promote the BF program that say "Grab n Go" on the front and "Eat to Win" on the back. At Bell Herron Middle School, the Grab n Go Breakfast is tied in with Walking with the Principal in the morning. Students are offered breakfast first and then have the option to exercise in the gymnasium prior to the start of the school day from 6:50 to 7:20 a.m. Approximately 60 students take advantage of breakfast while 150 plus students are in the gymnasium either walking, playing basketbal or volleyball with the principal. This has been a huge success this year. Students enjoy the early morning movement and are ready to report to class -- awake and alert. Date of Program : 2005-2006 school year
