🔎Clue in to School Breakfast!🔍
That's the theme for the 2025 National School Breakfast Week!
It's no mystery that the JCPS School Nutrition team at Glendale-Kenly Elementary School worked hard to bring the fun and excitement of mystery-solving into the cafeteria.
Each breakfast-goer was given a nutritional education booklet and a small plastic magnifying glass to clearly see the benefits of a healthy breakfast. 🍎🍌 There was also a photo booth 📸, games, and prizes!!!🏆
Thank you to the JCPS School Nutrition team for their efforts to make this an unforgettable event!
