Support Our School Breakfast and Snack Programs – Eat Well to Excel Day is Tuesday November 20, 2018!!
Eat Well to Excel, the Simcoe County Nutrition Program for School-Age Children is the name of the local Student Nutrition Program in Simcoe County. EWTE is a non-profit community partnership that supports volunteer run Student Nutrition Programs in over 185 schools/programs (including elementary and secondary schools, learning centres and alternative programs) in Simcoe County. Research shows that students with access to a breakfast program have reduced risk for disease, are more likely to come to school and participate in class, have better test scores, and are more likely to graduate.
Here’s how you can support your school’s Eat Well to Excel program:
