Perfect Attendance Reaps Rewards

Help me give my students customized awards for their perfect attendance each academic quarter.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Louis's classroom raised $418

This project is fully funded

My Project

I have some students that aren't recognized because they are not the top academic scholars. Many of them work hard, and try to achieve the highest scores possible. My students are never acknowledged for their perfect attendance. I want to provide them with acrylic awards to acknowledge their academic success along with their attendance. Students with perfect attendance are more likely to keep up with their schoolwork, understand the material better, and achieve higher grades. We were granted with a cricut two years ago and I will use that device to engrave their names on the awards.

These awards will lead to a positive attitude towards education: students who attend school regularly are more likely to develop a positive attitude towards education and view it as an important and valuable part of their lives.
