My Project

Good day DC family,

I created this project because the power of a "reward" goes a long way for the middle school students I teach daily.

The classes are all on Google Classroom which requires distribution and collection of computers for each of my four classes. I always need help and have daily monitors assist. These monitors get paid with a small treat daily because it does help me a lot.

I usually spend roughly $50 per month out of pocket to have treats in the classroom. So, I decided to create this project to offset some expenses.

Don't worry, I do also reward students with extra points. But, we all know that a good piece of candy can go a long way with middle school students.

Please consider a small donation towards this project.
