The rewards became a powerful way to celebrate their progress and achievements—both academic and personal—and created an environment where effort, growth, and kindness were consistently recognized.\r\n\r\nAs their teacher, it's been incredibly rewarding to see how motivated and proud the students became when their hard work was acknowledged.

Our students are so lucky to have support from all of you in the Derry community and beyond. The mailboxes came in very quickly and I was able to set them up before the start of the school year. This came with a bit of a room makeover as well. Our band room feels much more open and welcoming. The mailboxes were the first thing the 5th graders noticed when they walked in and we received a lot of complements on them already.\r\n\r\nWe have the two mailboxes set up on opposite sides of the room, one for 4th Grade music and one for 5th Grade music. As the year progresses, more will be added to it, but you can check out the current pictures on my page.
