Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1998, Congress authorized the School Breakfast Program Pilot Project (SBPP) to study the implementation and effects of providing universal free school breakfast in six school districts across the United States. For three years, from School Year (SY) 2000-2001 through SY 2002-2003, these six school districts received federal funds to offer school breakfasts free of charge, regardless of family income, to students in a number of elementary schools that were matched on a number of characteristics, then randomly assigned to either treatment or control status. The control schools continued to offer the regular School Breakfast Program (SBP), which provides free or reduced-price breakfasts to eligible students from low-income families. Over the course of the three years of the pilot project, data were collected from all participating schools for an evaluation of the implementation and impact of providing universal-free school breakfast. The current report serves as the final report of findings from the SBPP. It provides impact estimates for a smaller set of outcomes, based on data collected over the remaining two years of the pilot, and integrates the findings from all three years of the SBPP. This report also presents findings from an additional set of analyses undertaken to address a set of questions that have been raised by policy makers and other stakeholders since the release of the first year report. These include analyses focused on students who do not eat breakfast ("breakfast skippers") and those who eat a nutritionally robust or "substantive breakfast"; variations in the breakfast setting (i.e., school versus home, classroom versus other school location); characteristics of students in food insecure households; and differences in student outcomes by household income level. The remaining sections of this chapter provide background information about the SBP; a brief summary of research on the relationship between breakfast and student outcomes; an overview of the SBPP, including a review of the conceptual model for understanding the pilot project; a summary of the findings in the interim report on Year 1 findings, and a description of the purpose and contents of this final report.

This book was released on 2010-10-10 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National School Lunch Program and the School Breakfast Program, administered by the Food and Nutrition Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), are key components of the nation's food security safety net, providing free or low-cost meals to millions of school-age children each day. Under the most commonly adopted provisions, USDA reimburses districts for meals served on the basis of data collected in a "base year," during which applications are taken. After 3 or 4 years, applications must be taken again to establish new base-year data, unless the district provides evidence that local conditions have not changed. A special provision that does not require applications to be taken every few years would reduce burden, be more attractive to school districts, and potentially increase student participation by expanding access to free meals. To support the development of such a provision, the Food and Nutrition Service asked the National Academies to study the technical and operational issues that arise in using data from the American Community Survey (ACS)-a new continuous survey replacing the long-form survey of the decennial census-to obtain estimates of students who are eligible for free and reduced-price meals for schools and school districts. Such estimates would be used to develop "claiming percentages" that, if sufficiently accurate, would determine federal reimbursements to districts for the schools that provide free meals to all students under a new special provision that eliminates the base-year requirements of current provisions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Participation in the School Breakfast Program (SBP) is much less common than participation in the Nat. School Lunch Program, even among children with access to both programs. This report examines participation in the SBP among 3rd grade public school students, as well as the impacts of the program on food insecurity and children's risk of skipping breakfast. Students are more likely to participate when breakfast is served in the classroom, when time available for breakfast in school is longer, and when they come from lower income or time-constrained households. Children with access to the SBP are more likely to eat breakfast in the morning and that program access may enhance food security among families at the margin of food insecurity. Illus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the School Meals Initiative (SMI), the U.S. Department of Agriculture-Food and Nutrition Service (USDA-FNS) now requires each state to regularly review the nutritional content of food served by each School Food Authority (SFA) as part of the National School Lunch Program (NSLP). While states must monitor the nutritional content of school meals, they are not required to forward any information to USDA-FNS. However, USDA-FNS is required to measure progress to "ensure that school meals are consistent with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) and the Recommended Daily Allowances (RDA)." To measure progress, USDA-FNS needs to produce state and national aggregations of the nutrient content in school lunches to show that meals in a given state or in the country as a whole are consistent with the DGA and RDA. In addition, FNS needs to do this while imposing minimal reporting burdens on the states. The USDA-FNS contracted with RAND to look more carefully at how some states are performing SMI reviews and how they might be able to transmit data with limited additional burden. In particular, it asked seven states to work collaboratively with RAND--through on-site, in-depth interviews--to explore possible reporting systems: California, Georgia, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, Texas, and Wisconsin. These states were chosen as representative of regional differences across the country and of methods for conducting SMI reviews. This report describes the results of the analysis of possible approaches for states to report the results of their nutritional reviews to USDA-FNS.
