My Project

Our students come to school with big hopes and dreams, many looking to become engineers, scientists, YouTube stars, and more. Having the stamina to keep going when math, or science, or reading is hard can be really tough, particularly as the weather gets colder and grayer here in Massachusetts.

Our 850+ SHARKS need a popcorn maker to help support celebrations in our classrooms; from attendance to academic achievement, and holidays to exemplifying our core values, we need popcorn to celebrate one and all!

This popcorn maker will help us be able to reward whole classes of 25 kids or more, and whole grades of 100 or more, without having to ask for donations of popcorn or popping lots of smaller bags. Popcorn for everyone!
