The article reports on the new breakfast in the classroom program instituted by several elementary schools in Virginia. Students at Birdneck, Luxford, Shelton Park and Bettie F. Williams schools pick up two wax paper bags from carts outside their classrooms when they arrive each morning. One bag holds a breakfast entree, while the other bag contains a carton of milk and one of juice. At the four participating schools, about half of the students are buying breakfast.
