My Students

My PreK3 students are some of the most amazing children I have ever met. They live in one of the most dangerous communities in our nation's capital and some have gone through more in their young lives then many of us will every have to endure in a lifetime. Every day they walk down a hill to school where they are able to escape the violence that riddles their neighborhood. Despite all of the challenges they face outside the school walls, they still come to school each day ready and excited to learn.

My 3 year olds thrive on the educational and enrichment opportunities being offered to them which helps them to build their background knowledge and expose them to things they otherwise wouldn't be exposed to.

Many of them would not have any opportunities to build their educational foundations if it wasn't for being enrolled in school.

My Project

I choose a variety of healthy snacks, including Whole Grain Goldfish, Graham Crackers, and Pretzels as snacks to give to my students at the end of the day when their lunch is wearing off and they need a pick me up. I choose them as individually wrapped so that for our students who do not always get enough to eat at home can have snacks to take home with them over the weekend.

100% of our students receive free breakfast and free lunch at the school and don't always have enough to eat for dinner at night or over the long weekends.

These snacks will go a long way to fill their bellies so they can focus and learn. For our youngest learners, it is too difficult for them to focus and learn when their bellies are hungry and they are concerned with where their next meal is coming from.
