Horn Snack Wish List

Horn School makes snacks available to all students and the snack supply is running low. If you are able to donate snacks, it would be greatly appreciated. Snacks can be ordered from Amazon and shipped directly to the school or purchased locally and dropped off. Check out the picture and links below for ideas. It is important that snacks are not manufactured with nuts and are free of gelatin. The following are great snacks we can serve.  Large bags or individually packaged are both welcome.

Want to purchase snacks directly from Amazon?  Check out the Amazon Snack Wish List. Don't forget to use Amazon Smile and choose "Ernest Horn School PTO" and the school will get a percentage back.
