My Project

After-school club season is here, and we want to ensure our students have a snack for when they stay after. We want to give our students both traditional and healthy snack options for when they stay after school.

Our students love Oreos, Cheez-its and Pringles as their snacks of choice.

These snacks taste good and give them the burst energy that they need for the extended day. But some students are not a fan of the more sugary options, so we would like to also add snacks that are on the healthier side as well.

Made Good cookies are the perfect substitute for Oreos. Some students might enjoy almonds. Instead of chips, Lesser Evil Popcorn might be some students' snack of choice. Everyone loves fruit snacks, but the dye-free Juicy Bear snacks are even better. Students will also have the choice of a Chomps meat stick for snack to provide an extra protein boost!

We all like choices, especially when it comes to a sweet treat or snack.
