My Project
At our school, we believe that students need more than just Chromebooks and textbooks to succeed they need to feel safe, warm, and cared for. Operation Whole Child is a special initiative designed to meet the everyday needs that often go unnoticed but make a world of difference.
Through this project, we will provide essential items like band-aids, feminine hygiene products, warm beanies and gloves for cold mornings, nutritious snacks for hungry bellies, and fresh socks to keep feet dry and comfortable.
These simple, often-overlooked items help students come to school feeling confident, cared for, and ready to learn.
For some of our students, these resources are not always guaranteed at home but they should always be available at school. Operation Whole Child ensures that no child has to sit in class hungry, cold, or uncomfortable. It’s about nurturing the whole student body, mind, and heart and reminding every child that they matter.
Warm bodies and full bellies are more receptive to learning.
