Operation Before Practice Snacks

Help me give my students snacks for after school team practices, community service and events.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Sperduto's classroom raised $687

My Project

My NJROTC cadets are often in the classroom before the start of the school day, and some stay late after school to help other students with homework or prepare uniforms for inspection, work in our supply room, and practice for promotion tests.

The snacks, like fruit gummies and cookies, would give my students a boost before, during, and after the school day.

There are also times when my students miss breakfast or lunch, and these snacks would give them something to eat.

The snacks would also make our weekend events and competitions a better experience.
