Breakfast kiosks increase student participation

Two high schools in the Rowan-Salisbury School System have seen an increase in school meal participation since implementing breakfast kiosks just inside their main doors, reports the Salisbury Post.

Although North Rowan and Salisbury High Schools in Spencer and Salisbury, N.C., respectively, offer breakfast to everyone, students were not taking advantage of what was being served in the cafeteria, officials say.

That has changed with the grant-funded kiosks, as students stop at the station on their way into school, input their ID number and choose a fruit, muffin and carton of juice. North Rowan expects both the cafeteria and kiosk to feed over 200 students each morning, according to the website.
