Students are able to choose a snack when they are hungry during the school day, which helps them feel cared for and ready to learn. One moment that stood out to me was seeing how excited students were to discover the variety of snacks available to them. Having these options in our classroom has helped ensure that students can focus on learning without being distracted by hunger.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the new snacks, they were immediately excited and curious about the different choices. They loved being able to choose something they enjoyed, and it was especially rewarding to see students who may not have had a snack that day have access to one. The snack cabinet has become more than just a place for food—it is a small way for me to show my students that they are supported, cared for, and valued in our classroom.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, we will continue using the snacks throughout the school year as students need them. I hope to keep the snack supply stocked so that every student knows they have a safe place to go when they are hungry. I am incredibly grateful to the donors who helped make this possible. Your generosity is directly supporting my students and allowing me to meet one of their basic needs so they can feel comfortable, cared for, and ready to learn each day.","fullyFundedDate":1782400476619,"projectUrl":"project/fueling-young-minds-one-snack-at-a-time/10334332/","projectTitle":"Fueling Young Minds, One Snack at a Time","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Martin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10530084_orig.jpg?crop=4104,4105,x0,y218&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1781363639750","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10530084"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_106568","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":516,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":71,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":61,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":23,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":5,"gradesServed":"4 - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"13.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":47.5,"schoolId":106568,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cedar Ridge Intermediate School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cedar Ridge Intermediate School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/missouri/branson-r-iv-school-district/cedar-ridge-intermediate-school/106568"}
