Yeah, Rincon/University HS!

It has helped fuel my students through the first quarter of school which has made a huge difference.\r\n\r\nEven just having things available for them has been incredibly helpful.

I got more assignments and students were overall less distracted in class. \r\n\r\nThank you so so so much for your support. It really means a lot, and this really wouldn't have been possible without your help.
