My Project

I teach at a Title I elementary school where many students do not come to school having eaten breakfast and also do not bring snacks for snack time. Upper Elementary students don't have lunch until 12:15pm, so I want to make sure that all students have access to a healthy snack or breakfast bar that need one to be able to stay focused on their learning!

Help me provide healthy snacks and breakfast bars to students at my Title I school who do not come to school having ate breakfast or with snacks to tide them over until lunchtime.

I don't want students to have to worry about being hungry when they are in school. I want all students to know that they have access to a healthy snack so that their growing minds can stay focused on their learning!
