My Project

Many students arrive at school without the proper nutrition needed to make them successful throughout their day. While many receive lunch and breakfast at school, it is the snacks they are missing. Feeling sluggish in the middle of the day can have a negative effect on a students learning capabilities

Providing our students with the fuel needed to power their brains during the day we can help ensure they are learning and ready to take on the world.

While our goals are big so is our mission! We want to ensure each of our student's is given the best chance to make a difference in the world as they grow and learn.

Grades 3-5
