Academic Awards & Incentives Idea Guide
Designate a display case for recognizing your school’s A-B honor roll students. Hang the list of student names, then decorate the rest of the case with images of things that begin with A or B, such as apples and bumble bees. Present A-B Honor Roll Certificates to the students on your list.
If your school gives out principal’s awards, have a theme for the awards. Choose from the themes available on our laminated tags: “My Principal Thinks I’m PAW-some,” “My Principal Thinks I Rock,” “My Principal Thinks I’m A Star!” and “My Principal Believes In Me!” Show the theme using decorations outside the principal’s office, as well as on bulletin boards.
Make sure that your student of the month program is well publicized. Announce the criteria for the honor and include information about the program in your school’s newsletter. Then feature each winner on your morning announcements. Use a “Student Of The Month” Pencil Pouch Gift Pack to reward this hardworking young person.
As testing time draws near, provide students with a quick reminder of test-taking basics. Grab their attention by recruiting your school’s mascot to help you. (If you don’t have one, borrow the local high school’s mascot.) Ask the mascot to go from classroom to classroom, handing out “Be A SMART Tester” Bookmarks.
