My Project

The students at my school are hard working and love learning. But when the snack attack hits, it can be hard to learn. These snacks will help my students stay full and focused as they work each day, and provide them with more choices.

Everyone needs a snack when they're working hard.

This year, I have been able to provide snacks for my students when they need them. I have a bucket that is refilled daily and the students are able to choose a snack when they need it. Currently, our snacks are at a dangerously low level. Help me continue to provide snacks for my students for the remainder of the year.
