My Project

Our school uses the Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support program to improve student behavior. A major part of the program is rewarding students for good behavior. As a school, we use Class Dojo to communicate with parents and give students points for good behavior. As students accumulate points, they are given opportunities to use their points to shop at the Cat Cash Store.

The Cat Cash Store contains a variety of items that students can purchase.

The items range in size and price. The students are given the option to save points for bigger items or spend their points as they go. This project will provide a variety of items for students to purchase in the Cat Cash Store, such as building sets, Kindles, hats, and Squishmallows.
