My Project

I'm a first-year teacher to some AMAZING first-grade students! Our school is a Title I public charter, meaning many of our scholars are eligible for free meals, academic support, etcetera. This presents a challenge when it comes to acquiring much-needed and wanted resources.

Incentives are proven to help to motivate learning, reinforce good behavior and detract from bad habits.

Your contribution to this project will help give my scholars incentives they have an interest in such as their favorite candy/snacks, Hotwheels, scrunchies, Play-Doh, and other creative and fun toys and activities.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.

More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
