My Project

Many of my students struggle with food security at home and often don't have access to meals at home. I have a mini snack pantry open to all my students who need some extra brain power to get through the day. These are snacks that are on the healthier side that will also help hold students over until lunch time when they can get more substance in their system. I think it's important for students to have full bellies in order to do their best work at school and be successful!
