Breakfast is something that a lot of kids enjoy having before school. However, many kids don’t have access or time for breakfast at home. For many, the school breakfast line is the only chance students get to eat before lunch. With that being said, there are some things students must accomplish before class, such as going to their lockers. Things like this make it difficult to grab breakfast. Something that makes it even more difficult is the fact that they close so early.

In past years, our school’s breakfast line closed at 8:30, or sometimes a little later. This year it began closing around 8:25, if not earlier. That is not enough time for students to grab breakfast. For example, a student is really hungry and gets to school at 8:25 and doesn’t have access to breakfast. That can leave a student forced to stay hungry until lunch, which could also have them unable to focus in class.

Many students occasionally run late from, and this could be due to the fact that their older siblings take them to school, which is something that the student cannot control. When said student gets to school they may have limited time to get breakfast at school, and they may not have the resources at home. This could all change if the breakfast line would stay open longer. The student could go to class and set their stuff down, and then proceed to ask for permission to grab breakfast if they are feeling hungry.
