\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRichardson ISD is set to introduce a Grab and Go Breakfast program at two high schools after the RISD school board approved a grant Feb. 19<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The details<\/p>\n

RISD\u2019s Child Nutrition Department<\/a> received a $10,890 grant from Share Our Strength\u2019s No Kid Hungry<\/a> campaign. The funds will be used to expand RISD\u2019s National School Breakfast program and to bring a Grab and Go Breakfast option to Richardson High School and Lake Highlands High School.<\/p>\n

In addition to the traditional cafeteria model, students at those high schools will have access to breakfast served from mobile grab-and-go carts in high-traffic areas. According to district documents<\/a>, the program aims to increase breakfast participation.<\/p>\n

There is no timeline for the launch of the new program yet, a district representative said.<\/p>\n

Some context<\/p>\n

RISD\u2019s grant is part of $102,772 in funding distributed to three school districts to provide alternative breakfast programs that meet students\u2019 needs, according to a news release<\/a> from No Kid Hungry Texas.<\/p>\n

\u201cA healthy breakfast can make all the difference in a child\u2019s day, however far too many students still arrive at school without the nutrition they need for a full day of learning,\u201d said Stacie Sanchez Hare, director of No Kid Hungry Texas, in the release. \u201cThese grants empower our district partners to both strengthen and expand their breakfast efforts so every child can be set up for academic success each day.\u201d\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Richardson ISD is set to introduce a Grab and Go Breakfast program at two high schools after the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":176998,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[321,666,71288,4534,962,71289,160,162,161,63787,5810],"class_list":["post-176997","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-plano","tag-breakfast","tag-funding","tag-grab-and-go","tag-grant","tag-lake-highlands","tag-no-kid-hungry","tag-plano","tag-plano-headlines","tag-plano-news","tag-richardson-high-school","tag-richardson-isd"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/176997","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=176997"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/176997\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/176998"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=176997"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=176997"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=176997"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
