Healthy Transition

Help me give my students healthy options to support their focus and attention.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Parks's classroom raised $460

My Project

When students have a healthy option to support their growth and development they will always perform better. Students will be able to focus and attend to material presented and perform at their best.

With these snacks students will be able to remain engaged and focused on their planning and preparing for transition to adulthood.

As we work to support them in long term planning these snacks will incentivize their completion of tasks and assessments as well as work to curb hunger, a barrier to work and attendance.

The goal of this project is to improve engagement while offering healthy alternatives to snacks.
