My Project

I am so lucky to be the school social worker at our school and to be surrounded by such an awesome group of students! Not only do they make my day brighter, but, they have a hunger to learn!

The only thing stronger than that hunger to learn is their need for fuel (granola bars, jerky, cookies, etc.) throughout the day.

We are a Title I school, which means many of our families are low income and part of our free and reduced lunch program. Help get them through their day fed well!
