My Project

Students thrive when school feels welcoming, engaging, and rewarding. We are creating positive moments that encourage strong behavior, attendance, and school pride. This project will provide a slushie machine and assorted slushie mixes to be used during student celebrations, PBIS incentives, community events, and academic achievement rewards.

The slushie station will serve as a fun, memorable way to recognize students for their hard work while creating a sense of belonging and connection within our school community.

High school students face academic pressure, social challenges, and daily stress. Incentives that are fun, positive, and social help motivate students to stay engaged and make good choices.

Our school hosts:

• PBIS celebrations

• Attendance incentives

• Academic achievement days

• Student leadership events

• School spirit activities

Having a slushie machine allows us to turn ordinary reward days into exciting experiences that students look forward to — reinforcing positive behavior and effort in a meaningful way.

We are requesting:

• A slushie machine

• Variety packs of slushie mix flavors

• Cups and basic serving supplies (if allowed)

These items will be reused throughout the school year to support multiple student incentive programs and events.

With this project, students will:

• Feel recognized for positive behavior and academic success

• Be motivated to meet PBIS expectations

• Build stronger connections with peers and staff

• Experience school as a positive, supportive environment

• Participate in fun, community-building celebrations

Rewards like this help reinforce that effort matters — and that school can be both challenging and joyful.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
