My Project

This project for a variety of books will celebrate our Attendance HEROS - Here, Every Day, Ready, On Time Students, and focuses on recognizing and rewarding students with exemplary attendance. We believe that regular attendance is crucial for academic success, and we want to reinforce this positive behavior by providing an exciting incentive.

A visit to the Book Vending Machine will serve as a unique and motivating reward system for students who consistently demonstrate punctuality and attendance by having them choose a book of their own!

The primary objective of the project is to enhance attendance rates and promote a culture of consistent attendance among our students.

We are confident that this project will have a lasting impact on our students' attendance and overall academic performance.
