Congratulations to Jaylyn Stroehlein for earning a Division 1 Excellent Rating at IGSMA Solo contest.
Dear Cobden Families,
Next week, we are excited to celebrate National School Breakfast Week (March 3-7) with the theme "Clue In to Breakfast!" This special week highlights the importance of starting the day with a nutritious meal, helping students stay energized and ready to learn.
To kick off the event, we have invited local law enforcement officers to join us for breakfast on Monday, March 3rd. This will be a great opportunity for students to connect with community members while enjoying a delicious morning meal.
Additionally, we’ll be showcasing breakfast for lunch next week to encourage all students to "clue in" to the benefits of breakfast foods at any time of the day!
We are also proud to share that we use as many locally sourced ingredients as possible and that many of our menu items are made from scratch right in our school kitchens. We are committed to providing fresh, high-quality meals that support both student health and our local farmers.
We encourage you to talk with your child about the importance of eating breakfast and remind them to join us in the cafeteria for a fun and nutritious start to their day.
Thank you for your support in making National School Breakfast Week a success!
