Chronic Absenteeism is down, thanks to caring people like you!

A study commissioned by No Kid Hungry found that Breakfast After the Bell programs reduce kids’ chronic absenteeism on average by 6 percentage points.

Karen Wong, No Kid Hungry's Senior Manager of Research and Evaluation, said, “We already know that serving breakfast as a seamless part of the school day helps ensure all children get the morning nutrition they need and is a positive experience for parents, students and schools alike. But this study provides additional evidence that it is intertwined with student success.”
