As a charter school, we receive less funding then general public schools. This means that our school has no funding for any of the projects that the student leadership team hosts.\r\n\r\nWe pay for all the expenses related to all student leadership events, field trips and student store incentives. The student store incentives is the most expensive component that we pay for. Teachers award student merits when they are being extra responsible, compassionate and engaged at school. The students are then able to use those merits to purchase incentives which are primarily fidgets, sunglasses, art supplies, stuff animals and similar items. We pride ourselves in having students who are generally very caring. They are also very motivated by receiving merits to go above and beyond. The joy on students faces when walk away with their student incentives is noteworthy.","fullyFundedDate":1750256147190,"projectUrl":"project/student-leadership-student-incentive-pro/9170452/","projectTitle":"Student Leadership Student Incentive Project","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Clivaz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9968568_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x10,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1742001281718","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9968568"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_68725","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":123,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":64,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":52,"percentIndigenous":3,"percentLatinx":31,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":75.3,"schoolId":68725,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Willits Charter School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Willits Charter School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/willits-unified-school-district/willits-charter-school/68725"}
