Snacks to Succeed Part 5

Help me give my students snacks to keep them fueled while they are learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Melissa Smith's classroom raised $1,962

My Project

We seriously have some of the best students in our small-town middle school.

In past years, donors came together to fund projects just like this one.

Our students have loved these snacks. They eagerly grab a snack in the classroom, most during the afternoon. It has been such a blessing to be able to provide this for them.

Having a full tummy will in fact allow students to work to their full potential! Snacks can be expensive and on the list of demands, they end up on the bottom of the list for families and our classroom.

I know that when I have had enough to eat, I work my best. I don't like the fact that some of my students can bring snacks every day and some can't.

I will be sharing these snacks with all classrooms in our middle school to ensure all students have the same opportunity to learn at their best potential.

Our school includes over sixty percent free or reduced-price lunch recipients. Together, our community, parents, and staff work to get us everything we need. I am so grateful to have wonderful people like you also partnering with us to help get our students everything they so deserve.
