My Project

We are looking to improve school attendance and positively reinforce desired behaviors by providing a unique experience at school, an area where scholars can play fun games on a Nintendo Switch such as Mario Kart! Attendance has been an issue for many schools post-pandemic, including ours, so the hope is by providing a fun exciting experience for students on our campus they'll be more inclined to come to school consistently. Also, while at school, we are beginning our positive office referral system for students who go above and beyond student expectations. This space will be used to celebrate both students with strong attendance and students who do great at meeting school expectations.
