Free breakfast for all students
With food prices on the rise, families in Middletown will get some relief in the coming school year.
Every Middletown student will be offered free breakfast each morning, as the district expands its participation in the universal and free breakfast programs, which use state and federal aid to reimburse schools who offer breakfast to every student, regardless of income.
The breakfasts will vary and include cereal, bagels, muffins, fruit, yogurt or breakfast bars. Every Wednesday a hot item is available like breakfast pizza, French toast sticks, breakfast pockets or a pancake on a stick.
There’s no forms to fill out and no eligibility requirements.
Franklin City Schools also started participating in the universal breakfast program last year for grades kindergarten through six, and will continue to offer the program at those grades in the coming school year.

I think that it is wonderful for the city of Middletown to offer each child a breakfast every morning, it will not only give them a jump start in the morning but it may keep some from going hungry.
