My Project

I work in a school district where the kids rely on school for all their meals! With today being the first day of school, I realized no one ate breakfast before school, nor did they pack a lunch or snack. With hungry bellies, the kids cannot focus, nor complete their work. It’s like they all got “ angry”.

With being provided with the items listed, I will be able to provide the late students with breakfast, reward them for good behavior using tangible items, and provide them with a snack before the get on the bus.

It may seem like junk food for kids, but I’ve come to realize, to the students it may be the only time they eat.
