Special Prizes for All Their Hard Work!

Help me give my students prizes for all the hard work they do each day! They have been earning PBIS points since the beginning of the year and this will help keep them motivated to stay on task!

My Project

Aloha, donors!

Thank you in advance for your generosity!

This will really help my students have a treasure chest of goodies to purchase with their PBIS points. The students work so hard during the year, racing to turn in homework, stay on task, or answer questions in class to earn each point. They have been earning points since the beginning of the year and it is now time to cash them in! This wonderful assortment of snacks, fidgets, and toys will be such a motivator and fun option for them to enjoy!

Mahalo you so much again, from Ms. Strauss' 5th-grade class!

Ms. Strauss Waikoloa Elementary & Middle School Grades 3-5
