Motivating Students Into a New Year

Help me give my students materials to spark inspiration and motivation to start the new year.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Casebolt's classroom raised $241

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are in a seventh, and eighth-grade AVID Elective class. These students are part of a Title 1 school. They strive to always do their best even in tough times.

They are creative, free thinkers that desire and need challenges during this time of uncertainty and many changes.

They know that being a part of this AVID class means they will need to work hard and show determination to reach their goals. They must meet certain requirements and show leadership, good grades and attendance. They will also need to support each other in the journey.

My Project

The vinyl and magnets will be used to create locker decorations and inspirational quotes for students. The magnets can be reused throughout their middle school and high school years. Middle school can be tough and everyone can use some motivation.

Help me to inspire these students who have chosen to be involved in a college prep middle school class.

These students have committed to putting in the hard work to prepare themselves for the future. Let's give them some inspiration now and help them to inspire other students in the building.
