My students can earn PBIS points throughout the school day and then use those points to choose rewards that are meaningful to them. Having a variety of fun and age appropriate incentives has made positive behavior feel exciting and worth celebrating.\r\n\r\nMy students were especially excited to see that the store had more options than the typical school store. Middle school students can sometimes be difficult to motivate, so having rewards that they actually want to earn has been a great way to encourage them to make positive choices. I have especially enjoyed seeing students who may struggle with behavior or staying focused become more motivated when they know they are working toward something they want. Thank you for helping me create a PBIS Store that celebrates my students and reminds them that their positive choices matter.","fullyFundedDate":1789626159591,"projectUrl":"project/pack-the-pbis-store/10527975/","projectTitle":"Pack the PBIS Store!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Barrett","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8253626_orig.jpg?crop=896,896,x0,y35&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1733289277953","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/karlibarrett"},{"teacherId":8253626,"projectId":10649353,"letterContent":"The Fresh and Ready to Learn project has made a meaningful difference in my classroom by giving students access to hygiene products when they need them. The brushes, combs, toothbrushes, deodorant, chapstick, and pads are available for students to use privately and without embarrassment. It has been especially meaningful to see students feel comfortable knowing that these essentials are available if they need them during the school day. Having these resources has helped students feel more confident and able to focus on learning rather than worrying about an unexpected personal need.\r\n\r\nMy students were grateful to see that our classroom had these supplies available. Middle school is a time when students experience so many changes, and having these essentials available sends an important message that they are cared for and supported. Moving forward, I will continue making these resources available throughout the school year so students know they have a safe place to turn when they need them.

These shirts were worn during our dance performances, creating a polished and cohesive look that elevated the entire production. One of the most special moments was seeing my students step onto the performance floor together, all dressed the same, standing a little taller and feeling like part of something bigger than themselves.\r\n\r\nWhen the shirts were first distributed, the excitement was immediate. Students were eager to try them on, take pictures together, and celebrate the fact that they were part of a team. For many, this was more than just a shirt—it was a symbol of their hard work, commitment, and the memories they created throughout the year. Because each shirt included our theme and the year, it also became a meaningful keepsake that students will hold onto long after middle school.\r\n\r\nWe continue to use these shirts for performances and school events, helping build school spirit and a strong team identity. Moving forward, students are applying that same sense of pride and unity as they prepare for upcoming performances, focusing on teamwork, performance quality, and representing our program with confidence. Your support has helped create not just a costume, but a lasting memory and a stronger, more connected group of dancers.","fullyFundedDate":1711563767979,"projectUrl":"project/spring-dance-showcase-t-shirt/8272623/","projectTitle":"Spring Dance Showcase T-Shirt","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Wood","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9059346_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1695086453238","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9059346"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_92483","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":660,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":75,"percentAsian":22,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":9,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":62,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"22.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":81.0,"schoolId":92483,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Vista View Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Vista View Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/ocean-view-school-district-orange/vista-view-middle-school/92483"}
