Healthy Snacks to Help Scholars Power Through

Help me give my students healthy snacks to help them power through the day!

Ms. Savage Calvin Coolidge Senior High School

Washington, DC Grades 9-12

My Project

My high school students are everything positive including being dedicated, having the most amazing personalities, and are some of the most caring people I've met. They are in an Early College Academy and will earn an Associates degree and high school diploma.

Most of the students travel across town to come to school.

This means they leave home early in the morning and return home late at night. Outside of breakfast and lunch, the students are still hungry throughout the day.

My "cloffice" has become the gathering spot for students to check in, grab a snack, decompress, vent, talk or even just hang out. The supplies that I have requested will help me provide a healthy snack and bottled water to the students.

We call my space the "cloffice" because it's freezing and could be a large storage closet. The space heater that I have requested will help keep my "cloffice" nice and warm.

Your support will help me provide healthy snacks and a warm space to keep the students motivated throughout the day!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
