My Project
Children who snack on healthy food perform better in school. I would like to give my students that opportunity.
In addition, snacking lowers anxiety, boosts mood and lowers distress.
This would make such a difference in our class if the students could concentrate on their classwork and not worry about food.
Also, I want to provide snacks for students to take home in the evening and on the weekends to ease the pressure of worrying about food . No child needs to feel hungry and should not have to worry about food.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
