Behavioral Incentives

Emma Li Elliott, Special Education Teacher at Alameda High School, requested a grant to support classroom behavioral incentives for her students with emotional disturbance. Students were given blue tickets throughout the week when they are on task, completing work, helping others, etc. These students require these behavior incentives because of the mental health challenges they face daily.

Ms. Elliot wrote: “Thank you for your generous grant that is funding the classroom incentive ticket system for my students with mental health challenges. Since receiving the grant, my students appear more motivated and are saving up their tickets to buy gift cards. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the support!”
