My Project

My students famous words " I'm Hungry when's lunch" Well it's only 9:00 you just arrived and lunch is at 12:30. So needless to say

We NEED snacks and water to get us to lunch.

Pop tarts, granola bars, cookies and a fan favorite marshmellow treats to name a few. Many of our children don't eat dinner and breakfast is served till 8:15 so many kids remain hungry until lunch.

So having snacks and drinks on hand will be very beneficial. You can't focus if your hungry.

Thank you very much
