My Project

I have the privilege of seeing all of the students at my school each and every morning as they come into school. This gives me the opportunity to chat with them and many let me know if they need a snack for the day.

However, if students are unable to get to school by 7:30 a.m., they do not get breakfast, and many are left hungry.

Many of my students are often too late for breakfast or do not have a snack to tide them over between breakfast and lunch. Some of my students do not eat lunch until 12:00 and are hungry and not motivated to work. This project will allow me to provide snacks to my students who missed breakfast or need a snack between breakfast and lunch in order to be successful.
