My students come hungry and it makes it hard to learn. I get grants for supplies but am unable to purchase food with it. The modest breakfast and free lunches they receive are not enough when some don't get enough to eat at home. Learning doesn't happen until their basic needs are met. Many of our students are homeless and need extra food for sustainability. They have so many other obstacles to endure, food shouldn't have to be one. I have seen a difference in behavior and academics when I have been able to give them snacks and what them to continue to be successful! My students need a variety of snacks such as fruit snacks, crackers, trail mix, cookies, and peanut butter pretzels so they focus on learning instead of being hungry.
