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

Our students work hard to earn tokens to spend in our school incentive menu. The menu is a place where students can purchase rewards for responsible and positive school behavior while following our school promise.

Our stock of incentives is very low and needs to be replenished.

We would like to add fidget bracelets, cap pencil erasers, sticky hands, and food squishes to the menu. Earning a reward is uplifting and helpful to keep students in class. These small rewards give students motivation to continue to make good choices in school and to work hard to earn them.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
