According to David Just, Phd, professor at Cornell Center for Behavioral Economics in Child Nutrition Programs, good nutrition increases brain functions, promotes better behavior and learning environments, and helps promote positive school outcomes. A young person can't focus on his or her learning if his/her belly is growling. Sometimes it's a long stretch between lunch and going home for the day. Healthy snacks will help keep students' attention off their hunger and on their classwork. It only makes sense to provide these in a classroom environment. Another reason to have snacks in the classroom was emphasized by Dr. Barbara Sorrels, founder of the Institute for Childhood Education. She suggested that giving a child a snack would help calm him and build a relationship so that the child will feel safe, secure, and cared for and helps build a nurturing environment where the child can flourish. This is related to her study in dealing with students who have high ACE, or, Adverse Childhood Experiences. According to Aces Connection, 26.6% of Oklahoma children have an ACE score of 2 or more, well above the national average of 21.7%. Our children need help.
