My Students

Our students come from a very low socioeconomic community. More than half of our students receive a free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite this disadvantage, our students attend school regularly and do their best to further their education.

My school's mission statement is to provide each student a variety of educational opportunities that enable them to become lifelong learners and productive members of a changing world. Our students are supported by a very dedicated staff who provide a safe and caring learning environment.

My Project

My students are very hungry by mid-afternoon. A small snack provides my students with an extra energy boost to help them to concentrate on their academic success. When they come to class with tummies rumbling, their minds can't focus on classwork or new concepts to be learned.

Essential snacks will provide my students with energy to allow them to focus on their education.

Many of my students do not get enough to eat at home or during lunch. These essential snacks will satisfy their hunger pangs and let them know that others care about them and their futures. Thank you in advance if you can help support us!
