My Students

Our students are one of a kind. All of our students are respectful, kind, and a joy to be around. At our school, we work diligently to create an atmosphere that is academically rigorous and builds character. These scholars not only adhere to this environment, but excel in demonstrating the virtues of respect, integrity, diligence, compassion, and perseverance.

My Project

At our school, we know how important attendance is to achieving our best in school! We have decided to reward students who have perfect attendance with exciting prizes such as headphones that can be used for in-person and virtual learning. We know that prizes will help incentivize students to attend school, which leads to more learning, joy, and success that will take them to and through college! Each month, the scholars with perfect attendance are entered into a raffle to win these headphones as a way to reward them for being so dedicated to their education. After a year online and a big transition to in-person learning, we know how important it is to continue to provide technology to our students, which is why we feel that headphones are a perfect prize.
