School Breakfast Program

The School Breakfast Program (SBP) provides a nutritious morning meal. This program is recognized as one of the most beneficial of the federal nutrition programs. SBP meets a vital need of feeding thousands of students each day, who might otherwise not eat a nutritious breakfast. Participation in the program has been shown to improve learning and test performance. Specific meal patterns are required in the SBP. Schools that participate in the SBP receive funding assistance similar to the National School Lunch Program.
