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

The TES attendance team encourages our students to arrive each and every day. As we know, a missed school day is a lost opportunity for students to learn. I want all our outstanding students to have an opportunity to be rewarded for their attendance. The more a student is in school, the more they learn.

These gift cards will be given to students who have 92% attendance or higher on a monthly basis raffle.

In order to give our students optimal learning time to achieve their full potential, we would like to be able to offer incentives to our families of students with regular attendance. This would be a wonderful opportunity to increase our attendance and get our students and their families excited about attending school regularly!
