My Project

We know that students cannot begin to learn without their basic needs being met. Some things we can't control, like sleep and hygiene; however, there are some things we can control—warmth and food.

Comfort food and snacks are the number one way to the hearts and brains of the students in my class.

I have requested a variety of snacks that my students chose from the list of snacks available including potato chips, pretzels and combos.

I want to make sure they are their best selves so they can catch up with all the learning they've missed this last school year online. Here's to hoping that the snacks are a great start!

Thank you for your generosity.
