To encourage more families to take advantage of the healthy choices available with school breakfast, Garden City Public Schools will celebrate National School Breakfast Week (NSBW) during March 2-6.
Busy weekday mornings make it a challenge for many families to find time for a healthy breakfast. Fortunately, Garden City Public Schools offer nutritious school breakfasts, complete with fruit and low-fat or fat-free milk, to ensure students are fueled for learning every school day.
The 2026 NSBW campaign theme, “The Quest for School Breakfast,” reminds the entire school community that school breakfast provides a healthy and energizing start to the day for students. Studies show that students who eat school breakfast are more likely to reach higher levels of achievement in reading and math, score higher on standardized tests, have better concentration and memory, and be more alert, and maintain a healthy weight.
School nutrition professionals and students will be encouraged to show their enthusiasm for school breakfast from March 2-6 as the district celebrates NSBW with special menus, activities, and more.
