This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Ask any teacher, basic needs are often an unspoken part of our job! These are our kids, and we will provide anything they need to keep them happy, healthy, and learning to reach their full potential..
On top of a busy year with full classes every hour, I teach many athletes in the spring and if you know teenage athletes, they need a FUEL BOOST...Constantly!
These basic needs are ones we learn about in Biology that our body needs: Fats, Proteins, and Carbohydrates provided in these snacks will help our bodies build and keep our cells happy and us learning to our full potential!
Students often come to school having skipped breakfast, lunch, or dinner the night before, and I often fill the gaps with snacks on hand. No one can learn when they are hungry and irritable.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
