New Year New Prizes

Help me give my students exciting incentives to help start the new year off right!

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

Help me give my students new prizes to help them start the new year off right! Our Owl Hut store could use a refresh after the break to help students stay focused and ready to learn for the 2nd half of the year.

Please help me give my students some of their new favorite items like chips, takis, croc charm bracelets, lanyards and new surprise items for the treasure box.

The students have bought into the Owl Hut shopping experiences. They work hard daily in order to gain points to shop at our school store. These points are earned for outstanding behaviors in turn helping students earn fun prizes.
