High-Schoolers Are HANGRY!

Help me give my students snacks whenever they are hungry in order to optimize their learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Rippee's classroom raised $372

This project is fully funded

My Project

To optimize focused learning, teenagers need to fuel their bodies and brains. Snack time isn't just for elementary-aged students anymore: high-schoolers, especially those that can't afford their own, need snacks throughout the day to keep their energy levels up and their brains focused.

Students really are the future, and we need them to be properly fueled to fulfill that future!

My students have access to my snack cabinet, and they are allowed to take as needed. There are times when many of my students are not able to afford their own snacks, so this would allow for me to provide them one without breaking my bank account every week by buying them out of my own pocket.
