My Project

Do you remember when you would go to kindergarten in the morning and get to go home at lunchtime? The days of half-day kindergarten are over. Kindergartners now attend school all day. Kindergartners face the challenge of staying engaged and on-task during a long, full school day. It is very difficult to stay focused on learning when you have an empty stomach, especially when sitting in front of a computer. Many of my students are newcomers to the United States recently. To ask their families to send snacks daily is a burden I cannot put on them.

We are requesting snacks such as Goldfish, Lays, Fruit Snacks, Popcorn, and Doritos that will provide many nutrients and minerals that our English Language Learning Kindergarten students need between meals.

Snacks will help my students' brains and bodies get the extra boost that they need to do their very best learning. Please help us get snacks!
