During National School Breakfast Week 2026, we’re celebrating the power of breakfast and adding a little fairy tale fun along the way! Eating breakfast helps students focus, learn, and stay energized throughout the school day, and we’re proud to offer nutritious morning meals to support their success.
Our playful menu features favorites like Princess Pancakes, Wizard’s Wake-Up Wraps, Royal Breakfast Pie, and fresh fruits like Dragon Eggs (grapes) and Fairy Grove Fresh Fruit. While the names are magical, the nutrition is real every meal meets USDA School Breakfast Program guidelines. A "Fairy Tale Menu Key" can be found on the second page of the menus on county website!
Breakfast is free for all students, making it easy for every child to start the day nourished and ready to learn.
Join us in celebrating healthy mornings because when students eat breakfast, they’re ready to write their own success stories!

A big shoutout to Lifted Hands Food Pantry for their generous donation of essential items; including body wash, shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, feminine hygiene products, dish soap, and sponges, that are already making a difference for local students in need.
Special thanks to Jessica Deardorff, Cynthia Corbin, and Emilie Embrey for their teamwork in coordinating and delivering these much-needed resources with care and compassion.
This partnership is a beautiful example of how community collaboration and heart can truly uplift our students and families.
