BCPS offering Launch Grab ‘n’ Go Patio Breakfast at Plantation Middle School

Plantation Middle School joined the ranks of Broward County public schools implementing innovative meal programs, on Tuesday, April 5, 2016, at a school launch event. The school is introducing a Grab ‘n’ Go cart, which makes it easier for students to eat breakfast.
Unlike traditional breakfast programs that only serve students in the cafeteria, the Grab ‘n’ Go Patio Breakfast helps to increase breakfast participation by placing carts outside, allowing students to grab breakfast as they socialize, shoot hoops or head into class.
Representatives from Florida Impact, Broward County Public Schools (BCPS) and Plantation Middle School were on hand to answer questions about innovative breakfast models and the District’s commitment to ensure all students start their day with a healthy meal.
