Dear Horace Mann Families,
As we anticipate the suspension of SNAP benefits on November 1, 2025, I want to share a resource available to our students. The Regional Food Bank offers a program called "Backpack for Kids." Every Friday, students enrolled in this program receive a sack filled with nonperishable food items to take home. The contents typically include kid-friendly options as well as some canned goods.
If you are experiencing food insecurity at home and would like your child to participate in this program, please reach out to me by the Woodward App, school phone, or email at alnelson@woodwardps.net. The identities of those participating in this program remain confidential.
Thank you,
Mrs. Nelson
School Counselor
