Many of our special education students come to school hungry. They need a lot of love and full bellies in order to be able to focus on learning. This project would give us the tools we need to give them plenty of snacks along with all the all the supplies we need to keep their paperwork in order. With the large number of special education students we have and the large number of new referrals, the amount of secretarial work we have to do to meet guidelines is staggering. This project would help us to get those jobs done more quickly and efficiently!
