My Project

I currently work at a Title I school where many kids come to school hungry each day. I try to keep as many snacks as possible to help them get through the day. They are often late due to bussing shortages or family concerns. This way when they miss breakfast they know they can come to my office and get a snack. My students do better in class when not hungry and have less behaviors. Many families have struggled with food insecurity since the pandemic. Being able to offer a quick snack to a student can make a difference in their academic day.
