What is Expanding Breakfast ?
Expanding Breakfast (EB) programs are those that reach out to students beyond the traditional cafeteria environment. Program types include breakfast in the classroom, grab & go, breakfast after 1st period and breakfast on the bus, just to name a few. Why use an expanded breakfast program? Expanding your breakfast program beyond the cafeteria has been shown to increase participation to as high as 98% because it makes the program more accessible to students.
