12 Illinois schools win ‘Breakfast Challenge’
Twelve Illinois schools recently were announced as
winners in the Illinois School Breakfast Challenge. The
schools shared $36,000 in cash prizes, and were recognized
for considerably increasing their daily participation in
breakfast at the school.
At the awards presentation at the Executive Mansion,
Governor Quinn discussed the link between a good breakfast
and school achievement.
“No child should start their day with an empty stomach.
We are closing the ‘breakfast gap.’ The Illinois School
Breakfast Challenge is helping thousands of students at
hundreds of schools meet their nutritional needs, improve
their focus in class and develop healthy habits for life,” the
governor said.
The Illinois State Board of Education, the Midwest Dairy
Council, and the Illinois No Kids Hungry Campaign are proud
to sponsor the 2012-2013 Illinois School Breakfast
Challenge.
