My Project

For this project, I have selected a variety of different individual snacks for students to start our school year off strong! Each day, students have a snack time in the afternoon. These snacks will be for students who do not bring a snack from home. I firmly believe each and every child should have access to snacks, whether they're able to bring one from home or not. Obtaining these snacks will reduce the amount of snacks I have to purchase out of my own pocket for the upcoming school year.
