Creative Fun As Rewards for K-2 Students for Improving Attendance!

Help me give my students arts and crafts and games to play and create with once a month, as rewards for improving attendance monthly

Ms. Jimenez PS 200 James McCune Smith

New York, NY Grades PreK-2

My Project

Attendance is low at my school. We are a Title 1 school in Harlem. COVID has affected our attendance greatly. Our new principal has a plan to improve our school's attendance. We are having monthly celebrations for students who have improved their attendance. Now we want to have a fun with arts and craft and games day once a month, to reward more students with improving their attendance.

Students only learn if they are in school, so attendance is of the utmost importance to them!!

Our school will have a monthly day of fun and games and doing arts and crafts for K-2 students who have improved their attendance tremendously. We hope that having this reward day for the students will encourage them to want to come to school. Your support is tremendously to our school!!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
