Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Our students sometimes go without eating breakfast or lunch, so providing snacks is a small thing that can make a big difference in their performance.

Our Family and Consumer Science students have an End of Year Assessments, a graduation requirement.

Our teachers have been diligently preparing review material to assist our students in passing this important exam. The boot camp will be the culminating event before the test and our final push for success, so we need snacks to give our students the energy and mental stamina to give their best.
