My Project

This project is to support our Student Coucil . They are having a Holiday Fundraiser by selling projrcts created using candy canes this year. The projects with candy canes will be accompanied by positive peer comments. The purpose is to encourage positive peer relationships and a positive school climate.

These sweet treats will be promoting a lot of positive feelings!

Student Council will use the proceeds to help fund the Spring Festival. The Spring Festival is a reward to students who show RISE values (the PBIS model for our school.) Respect, Integrity, Safety, and Engagement are a few guiding principals in our school.
