Snacks

P-E-M is excited to offer the K-3 students a healthy snack option each day for a minimal cost. 

We know that most children do not get enough fruits and vegetables on a daily basis. Research has shown that 5 fruits and vegetables a day are the minimum required for good health, and years down the road they can reduce heart disease and cancer. Fruits and vegetables are loaded with vitamins and minerals, are low in fat, sugars and salt, and are high in fiber. No other snack food provides as much nutrition as a piece of fruit or a vegetable.

The cost will be $110 for the entire year, or $55 for half a year.

There will be many choices each day, including fruits, baby carrots, string cheese, cereal bars, raisins, whole grain cereal, whole grain Kraves, animal crackers, Teddy Grahams, pretzels and many more.
