School Snacks Make A Difference

Help me give my students some snacks for our school day. Most of my students eat school lunch and are unable to bring snacks for the school day. When snacks are provided, more learning is possible. Thank you!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Theis's classroom raised $276

My Project

First, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to check out my project. Throughout my years of teaching, I have always supplemented materials for lessons, storage needs, snacks, etc. For the past 5 years, I have worked in a community school that has many high needs and 100% free lunch. I serve a snack in the morning, in the afternoon, and for celebrations. Most of my families are unable to help contribute due to limited resources.

For my project, I am trying to gather and store school snacks like Graham Crackers that I can use to help my students during the day to increase student growth and attention for learning activities.

I know that higher level learning is mainly possible when basic needs are met.

Thank you for your support!
