My Project

I truly have an outstanding group of students! They overcome the challenges of life daily! The biggest hurdle they face is there is often not enough food in their homes. By offering a variety of snacks, it will help their brains work better as well as help to regulate their emotions. They are also at the age where they don't feel comfortable asking for what they need. I would love to create a snack cabinet so they could help themselves to a snack a day to help them be successful throughout their day!
