McDonald's offers free breakfast on STAAR test day

McDonald's says the deal was inspired by"research and data" that reveal students who eat breakfast before taking a standardized test see higher scores than students who go without a meal.

SAN ANTONIO — Students in South Central Texas can start STAAR testing with a free breakfast from McDonald's, the company announced today.

On Tuesday, April, 10, third- through eighth-grade students, as well as teachers, can stop by participating McDonald's locations between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m. to take advantage of the free meal, according to a press release from McDonald's.

Customers can choose an Egg White Delight McMuffin sandwich or Fruit and Maple Oatmeal, apple slices, and either of 1% low-fat milk or an Honest Kids Apple Juice Box.

McDonald's says the deal was inspired by"research and data" that reveal students who eat breakfast before taking a standardized test see higher scores than students who go without a meal.

The restaurant says that students should visit with a parent or guardian, and teachers should have proof of a valid teacher or school identification card with them to take advantage of the offer.
