School Breakfast is healthy, convenient, and affordable. The benefits of breakfast include improved academic performance, attention span, and behavior. Students who eat breakfast have fewer missed school days and fewer visits to the nurse. The School Breakfast Program provides students up to the age of 21, who are enrolled in public and private nonprofit schools and residential childcare institutions with the fuel they need to be full, focused, and ready to learn.Ìý

The SBP is a federally funded meal program operating in public and nonprofit private schools and residential childcare institutions. It is administered at the federal level by the USDA and at the state level by the fb88 Department of Education, Child Nutrition.
