My Project

Our students at the SVAH are working diligently to improve their attendance. Currently, we have approximately forty students working to move from the chronic attendance band to our basic band. Please help us incentivize those who are showing up for themselves on a daily basis. These Cinemark gift cards will allow our students a fun outing- proving that hard work pays off.

This also shows compassion for some of their circumstances that are out of their hands.

We would like our students to know that we understand that there are things that are not in their control- and be rewarded for their efforts. Our students are truly working hard to reach their attendance goals!
