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 students at my school are truly special and amazing. I want to help improve our school attendance this year with a more motivating incentive for daily and on time attendance because we need our students in school! We are a Title 1, PK - 5th grade school. This past school year, 43% of our students had 15 or more absences. If a student misses just 2 days a month, they are missing 10% of their school year and considered chronically absent. By this measure, a large percentage of our students are considered chronically absent. Poor school attendance negatively impacts academic achievement and social/emotional growth, along with other learning opportunities school provides our youth with.
To help address this, new attendance incentives and prizes will be put into place.
Students will receive prizes if their homeroom has the highest attendance that week and if they are on time through a randomized drawing. This will help students work together as a class and individually to prioritize attendance and work towards a practical goal. You can help promote positive attendance and change student's lives and outcomes by providing motivation and incentives through this project.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
