Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

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

At our school, we believe in celebrating students not only for what they accomplish but how they achieve it — with effort, responsibility, and a positive attitude. That’s why we’re launching a Game Room Rewards Space as part of our school-wide incentive program. We need two games to get this game room kick started: PAC-MAN Deluxe Arcade Machine and Foosball Table. This game room will serve as a motivational space where students can "level up" for: academic improvement, effort, positive behavior, citizenship

and also for meeting their attendance goals and classroom milestones.

Students will earn access through our rewards system, and for many, this space will be the highlight of their week — a well-earned celebration of their hard work.

Your donation will help build a space where students feel recognized, motivated, and connected. This isn’t just about games — it’s about giving kids a reason to keep trying, showing up, and doing their best. Thank you for supporting our mission to build joy, motivation, and momentum in our school.
