National School Breakfast Week celebrates the importance of a nutritious school breakfast in fueling students for success. This special observance March 3-7, 2025 celebrates the national School Breakfast Program and the many ways it gives kids a great start every day. The theme this year is "Clue in to School Breakfast".

At Amherst CSD, breakfast is FREE every day for all students in all of our schools!
Did you know children who eat breakfast are more likely to:
- Reach higher levels of achievement in reading and math
- Score higher on standardized tests
- Have better concentration and memory
- Be more alert and maintain a healthy weight
But when the school week gets busy, it’s easy for students to rush out the door in the morning without having a nutritious meal. That’s why school breakfast is such a great option! In fact, students who participate in school breakfast tend to have better attendance rates and fewer behavioral problems.
