My Project

As a dedicated school counselor, I am always looking for ways to celebrate and motivate my students. Birthdays are a special milestone for every child, and I believe that recognizing and celebrating them in school community can create a positive and inclusive environment. Additionally, providing incentives for academic achievements and good behavior can further encourage a culture of positivity and growth.

With your generous support, I aim to create a environment where every student feels valued and celebrated on their special day.

By providing treats for student birthdays, such as Rice Crispy Treats, we can create lasting memories and foster a sense of community.

Furthermore, I would like to introduce incentives for academic achievements and positive behavior. These incentives will range from different types of snack items. By recognizing and rewarding their efforts, I hope to inspire a love for learning and cultivate a supportive classroom community.

Your contribution to this project will not only bring joy to my students but also instill in them the importance of celebrating each other's successes. Together, we can create a warm and inclusive classroom environment where every student feels valued and appreciated.

Thank you for considering my project, and I look forward to the positive impact we can make together!

Ms. Josie
Grades 6-8
