My Project

My 8th grade students have worked hard to get proficiency on their benchmark test. Many students who were performing low have now scored higher on their test. I believe that these snacks will help encourage and motivate students to perform and do their best. Please help me with this project. I believe that when we as teachers reward students, I believe that students will go out of their way to do and perform their best. Please know and understand that I am in an low-income school. Your help will be gladly appreciated.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
