Does your child miss breakfast because there’s no time or they simply aren’t hungry first thing in the morning? The Kern High School District offers a nutritious breakfast every day that is available to all students. The School Breakfast Program (SBP), authorized by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), was established to ensure that our nation’s schoolchildren have access to a well-balanced meal every morning that class is in session. It is administered in California by the California Department of Education (CDE), Nutrition Services Division. It is a federally funded program that helps schools provide breakfast to all students. School breakfast provides ¼ of your child’s daily nutrition needs and research shows breakfast provides fuel for school and boosts brain power. Students who participate in the School Breakfast Program perform better academically and have better school attendance. It’s a nutritional and educational benefit! When a child misses breakfast and experiences hunger, their chance to succeed in the classroom is drastically reduced. Their ability to learn is impaired, translating into outcomes like behavioral problems, lower grades and poorer test scores. Busy parents also benefit from the SBP because their children will receive a healthy, balanced and affordable meal at school that eases the burden of their hectic morning rush. Not only is breakfast offered daily at every site location, but it is also provided at sites offering Saturday School. Encourage your student to take advantage of school breakfast!

¿Su hijo/a no desayuna-no tiene tiempo o simplemente no tiene hambre por la mañana? ? El Distrito Escolar del Condado Kern ofrece desayunos nutritivos diariamente y es disponible para todos los estudiantes. El Programa de Desayuno Escolar (SBP), autorizado por el Departamento de Agricultura (USDA) de Los Estados Unidos, fue establecido para garantizar que nuestros estudiantes escolares de nuestro país tengan acceso a un desayuno balanceado cada mañana escolar. Se administra en California por el Departamento de Educación (CDE), División de Servicios de Nutrición. Es un programa federalmente fundado que ayuda a las escuelas proveer desayunos a todos los estudiantes. El desayuno escolar proporciona una cuarta parte de las necesidades nutricionales que los niños necesitan. Investigaciones demuestran que los desayunos proporcionan el combustible a las escuelas y aumenta el poder del cerebro. Los estudiantes que participan en el Programa de desayunos tienen mejor desempeño académico tienen una mejor asistencia en la escuela. Es un beneficio en nutrición y educación! Cuando un niño no desayuna y experimenta hambre, les reduce drásticamente la oportunidad de tener éxito en clases. Les daña la habilidad de aprender, resultando en problemas de comportamiento, bajas notas y exámenes con bajas calificaciones. Padres ocupados también se benefician de este programa porque sus hijos recibirán un desayuno sano, balanceado y barato en la escuela y con esto también les ayuda con su agitada mañana. No solamente se ofrece el desayuno en todos los campus, pero también es ofrecido en los campus que ofrecen clases los sábados. Anime a su hijo/a que nos acompañen todos los días para el desayuno.

El Programa del Desayuno opera de la misma manera que El Programa Nacional de Almuerzo Escolar, y no se requiere solicitud por separado. Si usted ha completado y entregado una Solicitud para comidas gratis o a precio reducido para su estudiante, y fue notificado que calificó para el programa como gratis o a precio reducido, esos beneficios incluyen el desayuno sin costo alguno. Solicitudes para la comida son disponibles en todas las escuelas y también en la Oficina de Servicios de Nutrición del KHSD. También puede solicitar en nuestra pagina web directamente al portal familiar Titan en: family.titank12.com

*Nota—Estudiantes asistiendo a una escuela designada CEP reciben todos los alimentos gratis sin tener que solicitar.

una comida bien balanceada la cual necesitan para tener un día escolar exitoso. Los desayunos son altos en Vitamina C, calcio, yerro

y fibra para ayudar energizar a los niños durante el día. A los Estudiantes se les ofrece 4 artículos de los componentes de comida

requeridos: granos, (carne como opción/carne alternativa), frutas/vegetales, leche. Amenos 3 de 4 deben ser incluidos en ellos una porción de
