My Project

Providing snacks, cookies, crackers and chocolate in the classroom supports student well-being, engagement, and academic performance. Many students arrive at school without having eaten enough breakfast or may experience hunger before lunch. When students are hungry, their ability to focus, participate, and retain information decreases significantly. Offering a small, healthy snack during the school day can make a meaningful difference in their learning experience.

Providing snacks in the classroom is not simply about feeding students; it is about supporting their academic, physical, and emotional well-being.

Healthy snacks help create an environment where all students can focus, participate, and achieve their full potential.
