I NEVER reward my own children with money or "prizes" for good grades. I have been a teacher for twelve years and I am completely against this notion. Our Administration tried various versions of it year after year and it NEVER made students value their education more.......It did not turn any of them in curious students. Kids who value education come to school, even when they are sick and kids who don't value education....simply don't. The reward for studying or performing well is the education itself! It is something the student will possess forever.
I NEVER reward my own
