Parents of Ocotillo, did you know that Ocotillo was chosen 1 of 6 districts out of 386 nationwide for a School Breakfast Pilot Program.
This programs offers ALL students, regardless of eligiblity or income, school breakfast FREE of charge.
This is a 3-year program, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition. It will evaluate how well a universal breakfast program would work and be an important factor in Congress' decision on if/how to expand the School Breakfast Program.
