Arlington Eats Snack Program

9/27/2024 7:02 am

The snack program at our school, supported by Arlington EATS, provides snacks to any child who needs one so that there is no stigma attached to being hungry. With this as our guiding principle, we know we will feed kids who simply forgot their snack, are growing, are extra hungry or are from a family that is simply struggling to put food on the table. Once they have enough to eat, then they can get back to the work of being a student. 

 We need your support to keep this program going!
