My Project

At my school students earn RISE tickets for displaying Responsibility, Integrity, Safety and Engagement. One way, students can use their RISE tickets are in monthly raffles. We rely on donations to fund these raffle donations.

Middle school students can be difficult to find motivating rewards for.

They are not babies anymore but not teenagers yet. I have done a few classroom polls and have found the following items to be highly motivating for the majority of my students. This donation would allow my school to pick two winners for each item. This donation would help us reward more students in our monthly raffles by offering different items for some students offering a variety of prizes.
