My Project

My students work very hard and they need energy to keep them going.

These healthy snacks will give them energy and stamina to make it through their long day here at school.

A lot of my students come to school at 8:15 AM and continue after school with club activities and after school programs throughout the neighborhood.

It is important that they have a snack in the afternoon to help them continue learning and growing.

I have always held a ten minute snack time just to keep their energy levels up and their minds sharp.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
