FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Arrington's classroom raised $541
This project is fully funded
My Project
What's better than a book vending machine? A book vending machine with the latest and greatest books. Our school has an amazing vending machine, but it's important to keep it stocked. Students earn tokens by showing PRIDE (Positivity, Respect, Integrity, Determination, and Encouragement) on campus. There is no limit to PRIDE, so there should be no limit to books.
Join us in promoting reading and hard work by helping us keep a well stocked vending machine. Like our machine says, Bears who Read are Bears who Lead. I'm excited that I have the opportunity to provide experiences for our students to learn and grow.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
