My Project

Natural disasters are widespread and unpredictable, and when they occur they destroy everything in their path. In the event of a storm or tornado causing significant damage to our school, we as a community are required to rebuild with our students in mind first.

The snacks will provide students with an energy boost while at school and also cater to the requirements of individuals who may be experiencing food scarcity at home.

They will also serve to help fuel our student-athletes as they continue to compete athletically.

Each and every one of these snacks is essential and will enhance the well-being of my students daily.

Mr. J. Lanier High School Grades 9-12

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
