Many of the students eat lunch before 11:00 at school, and are unable to eat again until after the game (usually ending around 6:30). The healthy snacks that you helped provided allowed the students to have the stamina to work hard and play hard at every soccer game. \r\n\r\nWe had a very successful season going 10-4! this was a huge accomplishment and it could not have been done without your help and support.

These essentials may seem simple, but they have made a world of difference in creating a more productive and comfortable learning environment.\r\n\r\nMy students are already benefiting from the improved organization and accessibility of their supplies.
