Fueling Students Energy

Help me give my students snacks to fuel their energy while in school.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kidd's classroom raised $395

This project is fully funded

My Project

My focus is to be able to allow low income students the have access to snacks to help improve their academic performance.

Fueling students' energy is crucial because it directly impacts their ability to focus, learn effectively, participate actively in class, and maintain overall well-being, essentially allowing them to perform at their best academically by providing the necessary physical and mental energy to engage with the learning process throughout the day.

Snacks can assist student's cognitive function, academic performance, behavioral regulation, physical health, and motivation and engagement in the classroom.
