Youth Advisory Committee  (YAC) Works Hard To Keep Glenbrook 
Staff and Students Healthy and Environmentally Conscious!


Glenbrook's YAC helped us to celebrate National Breakfast week March 7th - 11th by coordinating several events aimed at supporting a healthy and environmentally conscious lifestyle.  Their "coach" Mrs. Ann McGovern works with them weekly and then learn to spread their message. 









Each morning our students made announcements to promote the healthy breakfast program that we have at Glenbrook. Glenbrook Elementary, and all U-46 schools, serves a healthy, balanced breakfast daily from 7:25-7:55 AM.  We had  over 125 students  and staff join us each and every day!





Unfortunately with kids, their eyes are often bigger than their stomachs, or they just don't like what they choose, so much food gets thrown away and wasted.  Our 4th graders, Luke, Ryan, Giana, Karla and Weronika from Mrs. Chellberg's class created a presentation to share with all Glenbrook students.  This presentation was about being environmentally friendly and less wasteful.








As a special treat, our Youth Advisory Council served the staff a delicious breakfast.  We were served a cheese burrito, fresh fruit and warm coffee. It was all very glamorous! Thank you Mrs. McGovern and the YAC students for keeping us healthy!
