My Project
The popcorn machine and bags will make a difference in our students' learning by providing a fun, tangible reward for meeting their academic and behavioral goals. Celebrating their achievements with a weekly popcorn party will encourage students to stay engaged in their studies and make positive choices in the classroom. This simple incentive will boost their motivation, help reinforce positive behavior, and create a more enjoyable learning environment.
Our goal for this project is to foster a positive school culture where students feel recognized and valued for their efforts.
The popcorn parties will serve as a weekly celebration of hard work, commitment, and personal growth, promoting a strong sense of accomplishment and school pride.
What makes our students special is their resilience, determination, and willingness to improve. Despite challenges, they continually strive for success, and with this reward system, we aim to support and encourage their ongoing progress.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
