Noting that there is a relationship between hunger and the ability to learn, this study examines teacher opinions of the impact of a school breakfast program on student success. A survey, focusing on grades 1 through 3, was completed by 188 elementary teachers in 100 Connecticut schools in which breakfast programs had been implemented. Respondents were asked about the influence of the breakfast program on children's attendance and hunger awareness, and about the impact of the program on teachers' ability to perform their job. Survey participants indicated that the School Breakfast Program had a significant influence on children's behaviors, enhancing attention and alertness, energy, motivation, concentration, and self-discipline. In addition, they believed that the program improved student attributes in ratings of cooperation, and responsibility. The results support the breakfast program as a valuable part of the school day because it improves the children's chances for learning. (AP)
