Aldine ISD’s CNS introduced ‘Grab and Go’ breakfast service

Aldine ISD’s Child Nutrition Services Department has implemented a new and convenient breakfast service to meet student needs in all of its schools. The new service, “Grab and Go” breakfast, began on Feb. 1. The plan will focus on three groups of students who may be starting their school day without breakfast.

• Students who may be a little late for school
• Students who visit the school nurse in the morning
• High school students who have early-morning or first-period athletics

Even though traditional and mobile breakfast service is offered at all AISD schools, there are students who may not be able to participate. “Grab and Go” breakfast service is available each morning at every school entrance, through extended service in the cafeteria and in high school athletic areas for students finishing their physical activities.

Each breakfast is assembled in a bag with choices of grain, protein, fruit or juice along with selections of milk. The breakfast is free to all students. Service is quick and students are able to take the breakfast bag to the classroom for consumption.

Beginning each school day with a healthy start is vital for nourishment and academic success. Parents can be assured that students will receive a nutritional, convenient and free breakfast in Aldine ISD.
