My Project

I have students who come in class who don't eat lunch or lunch isn't enough to fill them up. For some of my students, the school lunch is the only food they receive. Then I have students who stay after school for learning centers or sports activities, that don't have their license to go get something to eat. Staying after school for multiple hours with nothing to eat can cause students to be frustrated and not perform at their best.

These snacks will help give my students the opportunity to focus on their work, or activities so they can do their best, instead of how hungry they are.
