DOJO Store for Middle School Students!

Help me give my students positive reinforcement through their stomach. ‘Best way to show love is through the stomach’ at least that is what both of my grandmas told me!

My Project

Our school has several great students, who ‘do the right thing because it is the right thing to do’, as our principal says. So my team has decided to use DOJO as our positive reinforcement tool. We were going to use the DOJO points for field trips, parties and fun activities. However, we quickly found out our kiddos wanted snacks!

The best way to get into a middle schooler’s heart is to feed them!

Myself and 2 other teachers have funded our dojo stores out of pocket. We have at least spent 400 dollars a piece this school year for our DOJO store. I personally can not keep doing this, but I still want to give our kids something for doing the right thing and also for going above and beyond!

Please help save my family budget!
