My Project
In our busy classroom, one of the biggest obstacles to learning is something many people take for granted—a full stomach. I teach amazing second graders at a Title I school where many families face food insecurity. While our school does offer breakfast, students sometimes arrive late, miss the meal, or still need a little extra fuel to focus.
To help solve this, I’d love to set up a Cereal Station in our classroom—a self-serve area with two cereal dispensers and a rotating stock of healthy cereals.
This simple, consistent resource would let students grab a quick bite without shame, stress, or disruption. It’s a small act that can make a big impact on their ability to learn and feel cared for.
Cereal is easy, kid-friendly, and creates a welcoming classroom environment where their basic needs are met. Whether they need a full serving or just a snack to hold them until lunch, this station will ensure no student starts the day hungry again.
Students can’t do their best when they’re hungry. With your support, I can make sure that every child in my classroom feels safe, nourished, and ready to succeed—every single day.
Thank you for helping me show them that their needs matter and that someone believes in their success!
