My Project

I work at a very small school where every student is provided with a free lunch. The problem is snack time. Many of my students do not bring a snack. I would like to provide these students with a snack to eat while the others are eating.

Every student deserves to enjoy a snack.

It is a heart wrenching experience watching others eat when you have nothing to enjoy and can't ease your grumbling stomach. I have included a variety of snacks that will be kept in my classroom. They will be shared with all students who have forgotten, did not bring, or are unable to financially provide a snack.
