Upon the arrival of the boxes of snacks, my students' excitement was palpable, and the impact has been profoundly positive. The following are some of the things the project has done for my students:\r\n\r\n1. Enhanced Energy Levels and Engagement\r\nThe snacks have significantly boosted my students' energy levels. With this supply of nutritious snacks, my students have shown a noticeable increase in their engagement during lessons. The availability of these snacks has helped them maintain energy throughout the school day, ensuring they remain attentive and active participants in their learning environment.\r\n\r\n2. Reduced Distractions and Improved Focus\r\nIn previous years, my students struggled with distractions caused by hunger and empty stomachs. The availability of healthy snacks has alleviated these issues, allowing my students to focus more effectively on their studies. Because their nutritional needs are being addressed, I can say that these snacks have minimized interruptions, creating a more conducive learning atmosphere.\r\n\r\n3. Enhanced Cognitive Function and Academic Performance\r\nThe improvement in concentration and cognitive function among my students has been considerable. With their nutritional needs met, students are better equipped to absorb and retain information, leading to enhanced academic performance. Lessons and activities have become more productive as students can focus on the tasks at hand without the distraction of hunger.\r\n\r\nThe \"Healthy Snacks to Get More Energy and Attentiveness in Class\" project has been transformative for my students. The project has fostered a more engaging and effective learning environment. The support from Donors Choose has not only filled our classroom with energy-boosting snacks but has also enriched the educational experiences and outcomes for my students.","fullyFundedDate":1728704373039,"projectUrl":"project/healthy-snacks-to-get-more-energy-and-at/8458413/","projectTitle":"Healthy Snacks to Get More Energy and Attentive in Class","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Sethi","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8379968"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_58856","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":431,"numTeachers":33,"percentFrplEligible":69,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":6,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":84,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"13.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":66.4,"schoolId":58856,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Lowell Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Lowell Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arizona/mesa-public-schools/lowell-elementary-school/58856"}
