My Project

They need a little pick me up to keep moving. Like a hot chocolate and a treat. Our students work really heard though out the day and need energy to keep up. Since the lunch periods are later in the day, and this is a great way to give them a snack.

We have vending machines, but they cost money that some of our students don't have.

These treats will be free for our students.

It's proven that when you're hungry its hard to focus. Lets help them to stay focused!
