My Project

My school is a Title 1 school and many of our students come from low-income familes that do not have many opportunities to partake in extracurricular activities. Many of our students exhibit challenging behaviors that impede with their own learning and the learning of others. Creating a space that will entice our students to behave appropriately would be a huge benefit to our school community.

Having a variety of exciting games will help promote positive behaviors, improve our school attendance, and create a desirable place for students to visit during the school day.

We are working towards reducing the number of behavioral infractions and are focused on creating a safe and fun space where students would thrive both academically and socially and emotionally.
