My Project

Smart Snacks Fueling Students' Success

My students are full of energy, curiosity, and hope.

They come from diverse backgrounds and face real challenges, yet they walk into our classroom each day with smiles and a strong desire to learn. Their resilience inspires me to give them every opportunity to succeed.

This project provides healthy snacks—granola bars, fruit cups, trail mix—that help students stay focused, energized, and ready to learn. They love feeling full, cared for, and ready to do their best.

We’re also grateful for the Safco Mobile Laptop/Computer Caddy with Lockable Wheels. It allows us to keep classroom devices safe, organized, and easily accessible. Its mobility supports smooth transitions during lessons, and its lockable feature gives added protection. This will create a more structured and student-friendly learning space.

By supporting both their physical needs and access to technology, you’re helping us build a classroom where students feel confident, cared for, and excited to learn every day. Thank you for being part of their success.
