My Project

Children need snack during the school day to help keep their minds on their work and not on their growling bellies! Some students have a very early or late lunch and the snack they have helps bridge the gap in between.

We are a title one school and not every family can afford to send their children to school with snack, so more often than not they are either going without or teachers are providing them with snack.

Please help our classroom teachers provide these snacks to our students, so that everyone can have something.
