Help me give my students healthy snacks during important breaks during the school day.

My Project

During the school day, there are usually long gaps between when the students eat breakfast and lunch and when the students go home. It is important for students to try to stay focused during the school day so that they can learn and apply the concepts that are being taught.

The snacks that I am requesting to be funded will help my students stay focused on learning key academic concepts.

The Non-Peanut Allergy Snacks will provide my current and future students who may have certain nut allergies to be able to enjoy snacks. The fruit snacks are for children who like to eat various fruits. The Nutella and Goldfish Snacks are for students who enjoy eating crunchy snacks.

I thank you for your time and consideration of my project.

Sincerely,

Mr.Tucker
