My students were beyond excited when the new materials arrived. We turned it into a big class reveal, and their faces lit up when they saw the treasure box prizes, new games, and fun reward coupons.

Students are earning points for showing kindness, responsibility, and leadership, and now they get to choose real rewards that they helped vote on. One student cashed in her points for a \"Lunch with the Teacher\" reward, and we had the best time just chatting and laughing together. These moments build such strong relationships, and that's what makes our classroom a real community.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, our classroom is not just a place for learning but a place where students feel proud of who they are becoming. Next up, we're starting a collaborative project where students set their own behavior and academic goals, and your donation helps us reinforce their progress in a meaningful way.
