Snacking Around

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. LaBar's classroom raised $290

My Project

For students to be successful, they need to be able to focus on their schoolwork. If a child is hungry, they cannot possibly be focused on their learning. Sometimes, all a child needs is a drink, a piece of candy, or simple crackers to push them through.

Unfortunately, many kids are sent to school late and miss their breakfast time.

By the time I see them, they are hungry and slightly cranky. If I can keep some treats on hand for them, it will put them in a better place physically and mentally.

Ms. LaBar Rhodes School Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
