My Project

I am starting a new year with 29 2nd graders! I cannot wait to meet them and want to set them up for success at the beginning of the year. To do this, I am requesting snacks so that students are not hungry at school. When basic needs such as hunger are not met, students cannot learn. Please help us provide snacks to our new students, so they never have to worry about being hungry during the school day. These are great snacks that keep students focused and learning throughout the day!
