Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I would like to continue rewarding our students for academic, behavior, and attendance improvement and excellence. Each report card, students earn rewards for raising their academic grade, earning all satisfactory marks in citizenship, being on time to class all the time, and earning a 3.5 GPA or higher. They receive certificates and small rewards for each category they qualify for. We enter their names in raffles for big prizes. They also receive perks, like having extra free time. Kids love it! I’d love to continue to acknowledge and reward their efforts.
