H2O and Snacks

Help me give my students water and snacks to fill their hungry bellies.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Romaniello's classroom raised $493

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are a wonderful and exciting group of boys and girls in an ICT (integrated collaborative teaching) classroom. This means that 40% of my students are in special education, and the rest are in general education.

We are a Title I school and work hard to ensure that everyone learns and succeeds.

I want them to have everything they need to make their school year exciting, fun, productive, and successful throughout the entire year.

My Project

My little ones are back in school for the first time. It is a long time and their bellies get hungry and their throats get thirsty. These snacks and water will help I have bellies and Mouths. Can you imagine trying to learn on your belly is crumbling? This happens to my students every day in the afternoon. The small water bottles are for the little hands. The snacks will help fill their bellies. Please help my little ones be able to eat in the afternoon by filling the bellies with good snacks.
