Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Hello and thank you for your interest in my project.

In this project, I am asking for snack foods for the students.

I am getting low on my snacks as we have been testing for the past two weeks, and I always give them a snack break. So they have been going quick this time of the year. I am hoping to get enough snacks to last the rest of the year. The students always know, if they are hungry Mrs. Ballenger has something that they can snack on.

Thank you again!

Mrs. Ballenger
Grades 3-5
