I work in a school where food scaricity is an ongoing issue. Even though a large amount of our students quailfy for free and reduced lunch there are still gaps in the day where they require sustinance. I do not belive that there has been a day this school year where I have not had a student come and ask for a snack because they are hungry, and while yes there are some that are just looking for a reason to get out of class, or students that just didnt like the lunch that was served that day, but othere are those that come in because they have not eaten all weekend, or they are skipping meals to make sure younger siblings are eating, and it is just heart breaking. Being able to provide even crackers and granola bars are such a blessing, thank you for helping me to help my students to the best of my ability. Hungry children just do not learn and perform to the best of thier abilities and this is helping them to do so.","fullyFundedDate":1742929516364,"projectUrl":"project/food-supplies-for-nurse-office/8944783/","projectTitle":"Food Supplies for Nurse Office","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Honsbruch","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9431139"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_52239","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1495,"numTeachers":73,"percentFrplEligible":70,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":7,"percentWhite":56,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":27,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"20.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":50.0,"schoolId":52239,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about East High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"East High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/iowa/sioux-city-community-school-district/east-high-school/52239"}
