My Project

My first grade class has lunch at 10:45 in the morning! They end the day at 3:30! They are starving by noon. I have parents help with snack, but many families cannot afford to help. These snacks help them focus and stay engaged in our classroom lessons! I can see a huge difference when they have snack. When they don’t they are very tired and not attentive to the lessons! These snacks will also help with students who come to school with no breakfast! This also happens often. I want my kids to get the best experience from school and we would appreciate any help with snacks! We have a variety from granola bars to pop tarts!
