"Having access to a healthy breakfast is critically important for children to focus, learn, grow, and engage in school, and having access to a free healthy breakfast is equally important to families across the commonwealth," says Pennsylvania's deputy secretary of education, who on Thursday recognized Oak Park Elementary School as a Governor's Breakfast Champion after it served 31,263 breakfast meals to students in the 2023-24 school year.
More than a third of Oak Park students eat breakfast at school each day, according to the school district and Department of Education.
"With school breakfast being at no cost for all students, it allows us the opportunity to get creative and place a priority on this valuable and important component of school day," says Oak Park Principal Jonathan D.
in a press release.
The three-month Governor's School Breakfast Challenge encourages schools to increase breakfast participation while implementing sustainable changes that incorporate more nutritious and local foods in their meal offerings.
The top 10 schools with the greatest increase in participation received a banner to hang in their school, a certificate, and a breakfast recipe book including recipes submitted by schools that completed the challenge.
