Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

It is a very long day, and my students get really hungry. I teach 24 bright and beautiful children in a high-need area of New York. While most of my students receive free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch, some of our families are financially unable to give their children snacks for the day, and my students are often hungry throughout the day.

Numerous studies have shown the impact of nutrition on cognitive function and overall well-being.

My students need snacks such as bars, Cheez-its, and popcorn to keep them energized for learning all day long! These snacks would allow our students to have enough energy to keep on learning throughout the day and grow their brains! If we can make sure they get a snack, they will be able to better focus and really build the fundamental knowledge necessary for them to go on to the next grade and continue to be successful throughout the school.

This project is important because our students have a very long day and need some different yummy snacks to help them stay engaged in learning. If we can give them the smallest thing like an afternoon snack, they will be able to keep up their energy and learn even more in the exhausting afternoons. Help our students to grow their brains by filling their tummies!
