Help Our Students Rise for Their Prize

My students need a variety of prize options to select from when they are ready to redeem their tickets. Our cart is full of student selected items including erasers, smelly pencils, rings, bracelets, and pencil sharpeners.

My Students

Our school is comprised of a spunky, diverse group of students from Queens. Our school strives to promote excellence through respect and kindness. As part of this innitiative our staff is implementing a PBIS (Positive Behavior Intervention Supports) system to motivate students to make positive choices throughout the day. Our students are working hard every day to earn tickets when their positive choices are recognized. Earning tickets every day is something our students look forward to when they walk into our school.

My Project

This project is designed to continue to motivate the students in our school to make positive choices throughout their day. This project will supply our PBIS RISE PRIZE cart with student selected prizes that students can shop for on a monthly basis.

The prizes in this cart are essential for our school to continue implementing our PBIS program.

Students have the opportunity to earn tickets for their positive choices on a daily basis. Once a month students are invited to shop for their prizes and trade in their tickets for them.

Prizes in our cart include bracelets, pencil sharpeners, scented pencils and much more.
