State pushing districts to expand breakfast program


Juniata Elementary School students eat breakfast together
before school Thursday morning. Clockwise from left is
fourth-grader Alyssa Baker, 9, third-grader Corinne
Choyeski, 9, fourth-grader Carissa Choyeski, 10, and
third-grader Elijah Mulligan, 9.

Children at Hastings Public Schools have the option to eat breakfast every day of the school week at school.

The problem, according to district director of finance Jeff Schneider, is the logistics if every student chose to take advantage of the program.

"We'd have to start serving breakfast at 6:30 in the morning to get everyone served," he said.
