Teacher Survey Results
Too many kids are coming to school too hungry to
learn.
80 of teachers say they see children who
regularly come to school hungry each week because
they are not getting enough to eat at home.
Hungry children are distracted children. We want
to make sure nothing gets in the way of our
children performing well academically, including
hunger. - Arne Duncan
