My Project

Every year we encourage students to come out and participate in our Literacy Night, where they will learn tips and tricks to help succeed in reading, spelling, and writing.

Sometimes it takes extrinsic rewards to draw students into these events.

With your help, I can make Literacy Night more appealing by having door prizes of Xbox gift cards, Nintendo Switch Online Memberships, Red Lobster dinners, and more! The gift cards will be a great incentive for the extra efforts students are putting in to develop their literacy skills. The various candy will be given to all students who attend to acknowledge their commitment to literacy, even if they are not one of the lucky winners of the gift cards.
