What it means
Requires public schools that must serve breakfast and where at least 60 per cent of students qualify for free or reduced-price meals to offer breakfast to all students after the school day begins. Schools may pick the model, such as breakfast in the classroom, grab and go, or second chance breakfast. The state education department must set a rollout schedule by January 1, 2019, publish participation data each year, and ensure full rollout by the 2021-2022 school year; the main section takes effect August 1, 2019.
