You Did It! Breakfast After the Bell is Now Law!

Your stories, answering calls to action, and public support has paid off! Breakfast after the bell was signed into law by Gov. Inslee on Wednesday! Starting in the 2019-2020 school year, Washington’s high-need schools will make breakfast a part of the school day. This will increase access to a nutritious school breakfast for children in low-income families, helping them get the fuel they need to focus on learning.

Take Action!
Please take a moment to contact your legislators to show your support for the new law!

Call: Leave a message for your legislators by calling the Legislative Hotline: 1-800-562-6000
