By having the buttons maker, each student and parent would be given a button to wear while at school. The student's button would show what house team the student belongs to. While the parents would have a button with their student and house team.
After visiting The Ron Clark Academy in Atlanta, Georgia, I became inspired to implement some of the things that I saw.
By having the house team in the school, the students become more like a family and community. The students in my school take pride in their teams and this would be a way to show off their pride to the other student in the building.
The Cricut machine would allow for student to have printed shirts and water bottles with their house team names.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
