My Project

Many of my students come to school every day either without a snack or without a proper snack to help them focus during the day. When students come without a snack they are often embarrassed that they were not able to bring a snack.

When students are given a small snack during the day they are able to focus on learning rather than being hungry.

I want to make sure all of my students have the opportunity to have a provided snack throughout the morning to help them focus on being a successful learner.
