Help Me Reward My Amazing Students!

Help me give my students rewards for working hard and coming to school!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Donati's classroom raised $165

My Project

In these times it is so important for students to have great attendance and focus on catching up on work they might have missed throughout the past couple of years. I would love to reward my students with great attendance and working hard but teachers are not given money for food or drinks to spend on their classes. With these treats and water I will be able to add to our attendance gifts and rewards. Having students see their hard work pay off with not only verbal praise but with tangible gifts will help their perseverance and increase attendance!
