Many students come to school hungry or having gone several hours since last eating. Having a variety of snacks, such as granola bars and crackers, allows students with food insecurities to not only participate with their peers at snack time, but provides them the sustainability they need to focus and learn throughout the day.\r\n\r\nThank you for recognizing the importance of this Donors Choose project.
