Community Impact

91ֿ education majors work with immigrant children in Akron, Ohio, to increase their food literacy.

Connecting to the Community Through Food

91ֿ education major Klair Heestand said the time she spent teaching refugee students in Akron in the spring was excellent preparation for when she enters her own classroom one day. 

“It was very helpful, because we’re going to have students of varying abilities, and students for whom English is a second language, no matter where we teach,” Heestand said. “We don’t need anyone left behind because of a language barrier.”
