My Project

We have some truly incredible students in our school. Many of them have extenuating circumstances; living in public housing or in shelters. With that said, we want to create a supportive environment where all of our students can succeed. Success comes from more than just inside our school building. We want our students to feel like we can support them, even in their homes. Students who are considered to be at-risk, will be able to access the food pantry.

Our food pantry is a place to support all of our students needs!

This food pantry has all basic necessities from food to cleaning supplies to household needs to hygiene products. Items in this project go directly to supporting our food pantry. There are non-perishable goods like peanut butter, easy mac, canned soup, juice and granola bars.
