My Project

My students come to school every day eager to learn, but hunger often gets in the way of their focus and energy. Many of them rely on school for consistent meals, and by the afternoon, their energy dips, making it harder to stay engaged.

That’s why I’m requesting snack items like Oreos, fruit, beef jerky, cookies, and Cheez-Its.

These snacks will be offered during independent work times or as rewards for hard work, giving students the boost they need to stay on track. A small snack can go a long way in helping students refocus, stay motivated, and feel cared for.

With your support, we can provide the nourishment they need to do their best every day. Thank you for helping us stay energized and ready to learn!
