Coach James Jim Hill High School

Jackson, MS Grades 9-12

My Project

It is an honor for me to collaborate with Mississippi's top scholars. My students put a lot of effort into continuing their academic standing in the International Baccalaureate Program. This demanding curriculum pushes my students to become more analytical, focused thinkers. I want to make sure that hunger doesn't get in the way of learning because my kids have a lot of demands to meet. In Mississippi, storms frequently result in power outages, which leaves many of our houses without enough food. Having snacks available will enable my students to concentrate during class. Please assist in stocking our class pantry with snacks, water, and Gatorade. Not only will this satisfy ravenous appetites, but they will also ease the anxiety associated with finding food.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
