Testing snacks

Help me give my students snacks to get them through testing!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Help our scholars with snacks to get them through testing! With testing coming up all of our lunches are pushed back hours. With our school being a Title 1 the majority of students are unable to afford snacks or even bring lunch most days. This will help them get the boost they need to get through testing. I believe this will help all of our scholars who are unable to bring a snack. Each and every one of us thanks each and every one who donates to our cause.
