My Project

As state testing season quickly approaches, I would like to support our 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade students by giving them snacks for a learning lock-in. On April 24, 2025, our upper-grade students will be "locked in" the school from 3:00-7:00, engaging in testing strategies, math, reading, and science sessions.

I would like for all of the students to have numerous snacks to keep them energized as they rotate to different classrooms.

The kids will be at school from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and will need a meal and snacks throughout the day.

I am excited to help our literacy coach, other reading and math teachers, and our staff with this academic lock-in. I truly believe this lock-in will give our students that last little push before state testing, which can be extremely stressful and filled with anxiety.

Thank you in advance for supporting our students.
