Help me give my students snacks and refreshments while they sit for the NYS 7th and 8th-grade MATH exam! Snacks have been proven to increase focus and keep students motivated while test taking.

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
My name is Kristen Kaler and I have been teaching 7th and 8th-grade math in Queens, NY, for 10 years. This is a Title I middle school in NYC. I absolutely love my students and what I do.
My students sit every year for two state exams: ELA and math.
These tests are each two days long and last for hours. It has been proven that giving students snacks and refreshments throughout a test can keep their focus and motivate them. I would absolutely love to be able to provide snacks to all of my students for the two days they sit for the math exam.
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
