On Monday, October 27, at 9:00 a.m., Craven Early College High School, in partnership with the Craven County Schools School Nutrition Department, hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony unveiling a new Grab-n-Go Breakfast Vending Machine, a creative initiative designed to make nutritious breakfast options more accessible for students.

This innovative vending machine will offer a variety of healthy breakfast choices, including breakfast bento boxes and breakfast sandwiches, providing students with quick, balanced options to start their day.

Adding to the excitement, the vending machine will feature a custom wrap showcasing artwork created by two Craven Early College students. Congratulations to Esther Aye and Jaley Gwyn, these talented artists were recognized during the ceremony and presented with a cash prize for having their artwork selected to represent the school’s new breakfast program.

The unveiling was a surprise for students, and the event highlighted the district’s continued commitment to promoting student wellness and ensuring that every learner has access to healthy meals anytime, anywhere.
