Overview
One of the most popular programs we offer at Glen Park, is our "Morning Snack" program. Studies show that a child's ability to focus and retain information improves when they are well nourished. Our programs are volunteer-based and funded by municipal dollars through the Toronto Foundation for Student Success and with Provincial dollars through the Canadian Living Foundation.
Snack Program
Enjoying a healthy snack not only makes you feel good but enhances your ability to work productively. Through Glen Park's snack program students receive a well balanced snack consisting of 3 food groups, including veggies and dip, cheese, toast, and fruit.
The snack is delivered to the classes and offered before morning recess for in all students. Since only a portion of the program cost is supported by The Toronto Foundation for Student Success, in order to ensure the availability of this program, a contribution of $25.00 would be appreciated from each student three times a year through school cash online. A tax receipt will be issued for those who donate anything $25 and above. All parents are welcome to make a donation to the program if they wish; however, it is not mandatory in order to participate.
If you wish to volunteer in the program a police reference check must be completed. Please contact the main office for further information.
