My Project

The water and snacks that I am requesting for my students will aid them in their early morning desire for a treat. My students need healthier breakfast options. Breakfast is vital to kickstarting metabolism, regulating blood sugar levels and it also boosts energy levels. My students need this encouragement to stimulate their brains while they complete their study hall assessments. Study hall is crucial to my students' success when taking the ACT.

The donations to this project will help to improve my students' memory, alertness, concentration, problem-solving ability, test scores, school attendance, and mood.

By funding this project, my students will also be hydrated and be fueled to learn. We truly need your support to make this a reality and as always we great appreciate all of the support we have received thus far.
