Celebrating the Power of School Breakfast
Multiple studies show that school breakfasts are important in supporting overall student health by improving students’ diets and combating food insecurity. Students who eat school breakfast consume more fruit and fiber than their peers.
This National School Breakfast Week, FCPS Food and Nutrition Services reminds families that they are dedicated to providing flavorful, healthy, sustainable, and student-focused meals. New menu items have been launched this year based on student feedback.
Would you like to know what’s for breakfast? Nutrition Services has printable menus available.
Celebrando el Poder del Desayuno Escolar
Múltiples estudios han demostrado que el desayuno escolar es importante para la salud general de los estudiantes, para mejorar sus dietas y para combatir la inseguridad alimentaria. Los estudiantes que desayunan en la escuela consumen más frutas y fibra que los que no lo hacen.
Esta Semana Nacional del Desayuno Escolar, los Servicios de Alimentación y Nutrición de FCPS (FNS, por sus siglas en inglés) quiere recordarles a las familias, que ellos se dedican a ofrecer comidas que son sabrosas, saludables, sostenibles y enfocadas en los propios estudiantes. En respuesta a sugerencias de los estudiantes, este año se han lanzado nuevas cómidas.
¿Quiere saber qué hay para desayunar hoy? Los Servicios de Nutrición tiene disponibles menús imprimibles.

 🎉 Clermont PTA Silent Auction is Next Week – Get Ready! 🎉
The Clermont PTA Silent Auction opens online on Monday, March 2nd and will close at our very popular Silent Auction Gala on Saturday, March 7th!
We encourage everyone to participate in the online auction — browse, bid, and share with friends and family to help us reach our fundraising goals. Then join us at the Gala on March 7th for a fun evening with our Clermont community as we celebrate, connect, and close out the auction together with parents, staff, and community members!
