Breakfast of Champions is offered to Hays High School students who had a GPA of 3.0 or higher after the first nine weeks of school. The breakfast for this nine weeks was held on Wed., Oct. 26.

Students who participated in Breakfast of Champions missed a portion of their first hour class to enjoy cinnamon rolls, bagels, fruit and juice, courtesy of the Hays Kiwanis Club.

“I really just like missing part of class,” senior Hayden Sillmon said.

Sophomore Seth Shorb has participated in Breakfast of Champions since the beginning of his freshman year. “It’s important to keep your grades up,” Shorb said. “I really like being able to go to the breakfasts.”

Another Breakfast of Champions will be offered to students with a 3.0 GPA or higher at the end of this nine weeks.
