My Project

Please help me obtain rewards for students who have good attendance. Attendance in school can have a profound impact on both attendance rates, mental well-being, and academic success. By linking rewards to consistent school attendance, students may feel more motivated to show up regularly, establishing positive habits that benefit them long-term.

Regular attendance helps students academically and provides stability, structure, and a sense of achievement, all of which benefit mental health.

The consistency of attending school can reduce feelings of anxiety or isolation, as students are more socially engaged and feel a greater sense of belonging. Additionally, students who attend regularly tend to perform better academically. This can lower the stress associated with falling behind, indirectly supporting mental health.
