School Milk: All Kinds of Good.

Milk is a nutrient powerhouse for kids and adults alike. An 8 oz. serving of milk flavored or not, provides a unique combination of nutrients important for growth and health. And, flavored milk accounts for less than 3.5% of added sugar intake in children ages 6-12 and less than 2% in teens. Drinking milk at school helps boost kids nutrition, which benefits health and learning.
