As of October 1, 2022, and through the end of the 2022-2023 School Year, HASD will be able to serve students a school breakfast at no charge.
This change is only applicable to the School Breakfast Program and does not affect a student’s eligibility status for lunch (free, reduced, and paid, respectively).
And yes, that is homemade cinnamon breakfast cake .
