My Students

I challenge you to find students as dedicated as the ones at my high school. They come early, stay late, and some even work through lunch.

My school's start time is 7:40; however, students are frequently here much earlier.

They come early for review classes and to get help with homework. Rushing out the door as the sun rises does not leave them much time to enjoy a healthy breakfast. In addition to coming early, some stay until 4:00 or later to take advantage of the quiet work space that the school offers. After that, they go on to sports practices or games.

My Project

With all of their time spent on school work or extracurricular activities, many of my high school students do not take a moment to enjoy a healthy meal. The life essentials I'm requesting, juices and healthy snacks, will help students put the hunger pains at bay so that they can concentrate in class. The hand sanitizer will help stop the spread of germs and keep them healthy enough to come to school each day.

According to No Kid Hungry, 1 in 5 American children are hungry.

That means, on average, 4 or 5 students I see each class period do not have the food they need to focus in class. Who cares about analyzing poetry when your stomach is growling? Something simple, like a granola bar and bottle of juice, will make a difference in a student's school day. It will give him the nutrients he needs to concentrate during the lesson and the stamina he needs to finish a test or writing assignment.
