This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
The students at my school are in need of incentives to keep our attendance high. Our group of parent volunteers came up with the idea of giving students with perfect attendance an assembly each marking period. At the assembly those students are given an award and pen s and pencils for their efforts in keeping up their attendance. The parents then funded the first quarter, now our resources are gone for the next three quarters. We need pens pencils folders theme books with our school name on them. I'm a volunteer teachers aide and I am very active in the school. The assembly is for all grades k-8, students who are in uniform compliance, perfect attendance, and honor roll. We would like to keep the incentive plan going because it motivates the students to come to school on a regular basis and they encourage one another to wear uniforms especially those in the same class.
