My Project

Believe it or not, snacks are an essential throughout the school day. Many students I encounter don't eat breakfast in the morning for a variety of reasons and I can count on a few to come knock on my door for something to eat. Many of these students often don't eat school lunch because of what is being served. School lunch is not the same like how I was growing up and sometimes when I look at what is being served, I understand why they don't eat it. So having snacks readily available is a plus. I often give students the choice of two snack items a water or juice.
