My Project

I am asking for assistance in providing fruit snacks for my students during state exams that are coming up this Spring. These will provide students with a small burst of energy during a time they may be overwhelmed sitting through a lengthy exam.

My goals for this project are to provide a small treat that will boost energy during an exam that effects the future of our 9th and 10th grade students.

These exams effect placement in future courses and graduation.

My students are some of the most caring students I have ever worked with. Most of my students are low income students whose families are struggling to make ends meet. Many have jobs that help to support their families. Doing well on their state exams are very important for their future academically.

Thank you for supporting our students who truly want to make a difference in society.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
