Because of your contributions, I was able to provide consistent, nourishing snacks to my students, many of whom face daily food insecurity. Your kindness met a real and urgent need, ensuring that hunger was not a barrier to learning in our classroom. For students who may not always know where their next meal is coming from, this support was not only comforting but empowering.\r\n\r\nFood insecurity is a silent struggle for many families in our community. When students come to school hungry, their ability to focus, participate, and retain information is dramatically impacted. Thanks to you, I witnessed firsthand how access to healthy snacks improved student concentration, mood, and energy levels throughout the day. Something as simple as a granola bar or a piece of fruit leather helped my students engage more fully in lessons, stay motivated, and build confidence in their abilities.\r\n\r\nYour generosity created more than just a snack shelf: it created a safe, nurturing space where students felt cared for and supported. On behalf of every child who benefited from your kindness, thank you for being a partner in their education and well-being. Your impact has been profound, and I'm incredibly grateful for the difference you made to Tanner students.","fullyFundedDate":1739370030374,"projectUrl":"project/food-for-thought-help-hungry-students-h/9097820/","projectTitle":"Food for Thought: Help Hungry Students Have Snacks","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Weller","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6063292_orig.jpg?crop=2264,2264,x116,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1724441800029","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/adrieneweller"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_11479","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":404,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":88,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":22,"percentWhite":30,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":39,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":6,"gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"13.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":57.9,"schoolId":11479,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Tanner High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Tanner High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/alabama/limestone-county-school-district/tanner-high-school/11479"}
