My Project

At our school, we believe in fostering a positive learning environment where students are recognized for their efforts, kindness, and good decision-making. Our students work hard every day, and we want to encourage and reward their positive behaviors in a meaningful way.

We are creating a school store where students can use "behavior bucks" to purchase fun and motivating items such as snacks, school supplies, and small incentives.

By earning these bucks through acts of respect, responsibility, and kindness, students will learn the value of making positive choices and working toward goals.

We hope that by reinforcing positive behavior choices, students will stay engaged, motivated, and excited to contribute to a respectful and productive school environment.

Incentives like these make a big difference in student motivation, but funding for rewards can be limited. With your support, we can keep our store stocked and continue to promote a culture of kindness, responsibility, and achievement.

Please consider making a contribution to help us build a store that inspires students to be their best selves every day. Thank you for believing in our students!
