Although all of my students receive free breakfast and lunch, they often do not eat what the school provides due to sensory issues. These items we received are items that the school provides at times that my students do enjoy so I wanted to make sure I had them on hand.

This allows them to recognize school as a safe and welcoming place that treats everyone equally. As we continue to combat chronic absenteeism the attitude of students towards school becomes a large part of the issue.
