My Project

As you know, it's important to start the morning off with a nice warm breakfast to keep the juices flowing!

I have a few students who come in late daily and the food is already returned to the cafeteria.

These healthy dried fruits and breakfast bars can keep the tiger out of their bellies and their minds focused on learning. We get yogurt sometimes so the students can now add granola to give it a healthy crunch. The containers will hold all the granola.

The blankets will be used in our library where they can cuddle with a nice book!
