My Project

My students are working hard to develop their social and emotional skills with me in small social skills groups. Some of my students can afford to bring snacks to school and some definitely can't afford it. Please help me make sure all of the students I work with have a snack when they are hungry at school.

The snacks will be used to celebrate group work and during other group celebrations.

The snacks may also be used in an emergency when students are hungry. Thank you so much for your consideration!!

From, a very grateful school social worker
