National School Breakfast Program (NSBP)
Overview
The National School Breakfast Program (NSBP) is a federally assisted meal program that provides funds to states to operate non-profit breakfast programs in public or non-profit private schools, and Residential Child Care Institutions (RCCI). It provides payment for nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free breakfasts to children each school day.
Program sponsors may choose from several meal service types to meet the needs of their students. These include but are not limited to:
- traditional breakfast offered in the cafeteria
- breakfast on the bus
- breakfast in the classroom
- breakfast after first period
- or grab and go breakfast
Reimbursement is based on meals served to children at the established free, reduced, and paid rate depending on the eligibility of the student served.
