Healthy Snacks and Beverages

Help me give my students healthy snacks to eat during down time to focus better.

My Project

My students are very hard working individuals. They put their all in all the work submitted. As the time go by my students get hungry and its too long to wait for lunch time to come. I usually have them keep their extra breakfast in the back of the classroom in case they need something to munch on, however those items have been getting scarce. When they have snacks, they are motivated to be even more successful because now they are focused and ready to tackle the day. Water is a key essential in their daily lives and this will help to hydrate their soul.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
