My Project

My students with special needs come from low-income homes and receive free breakfast and lunch at school. Our staff is often concerned if our students have enough to eat at home. Providing snacks on Fridays definitely puts a smile on their faces! The students will get to choose a few snacks to either eat on their long bus ride home or save for the weekend. Often, they ask to take snacks home for their siblings as well. This snack donation will help fuel the minds of our young students.
