I have noticed that lunch boxes have been a need for my elementary school students. This will impact so many students who reside in temporary housing. One student came to me and said "Ms. Shepherd, do you have any lunch boxes" and this is because she felt left out because the other students in her class were able to carry their food in lunch boxes. Help my students feel included in the small things that we often overlook. This will also support with improving attendance with students in temporary housing.
