This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
I am hoping to supply my students with nutritional snacks or fun snacks that I can keep in the classroom. Very often they come to school hungry or they miss their lunch period due to their studies. If I was able to have items in my classroom for them to eat, I know it would help them be successful throughout the day. No one should have to feel hungry and I hope that this project will help to end some of the hunger my students' experience during the day. If your stomach is full, you are happy!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
