My Project

My school has over 300 students with one of the highest absentee records. It would be great if we could have a room (a game room if you will) so that we can offer it as an incentive for students to want to come to school as well as for parents so that they can also be motivated to make sure that students come to school regularly.

The dartboard, trivia game, and decorations will all be used in our school game room.

Students will earn an hour every month in the game room. Students will earn time in our game room by attending school regularly. Some of our students never get to experience going to a game room.

The games will be used as incentives for students to attend school. The game room will also have computers and other table games that students can enjoy.
