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

In 2023, we started using an online platform designed to build a more positive school culture. Recognizing students’ hard work and good behavior, and providing immediate feedback to students and families are critical elements of an effective school culture. We want to hold our students accountable for their behavior and provide positive reinforcement in a meaningful way. We hope to improve our attendance and community building with Eagle Store, but we need your help to make it happen. As we watch funding for public education dwindle, we must provide continuity and spark joy in our campus community. Traditionally, teachers are responsible for implementing positive incentive programs within their classrooms. However, this makes it challenging to encourage students to continue to make good choices in common spaces throughout the day.

Eagle Store offers a universal system where all adults on campus can reward good behavior.

This schoolwide program provides more cohesive and aligned expectations and promotes full community involvement in upholding our standards. This system teaches students both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation for making positive behavioral choices. Students looked forward to visiting Eagle Store every two weeks and exhibiting behaviors defined by our rubric to earn points.
