"Your program encourages admiration and respect from the public
and private sector outside the school environment... businesses congratulated them not
only with rewards, but with a sincere appreciation for their accomplishments."-- A.M. White, First Grade Teacher,
Las Vegas, Nevada |
| "Educators
recognize the fact that students sometimes need external motivators. This program
will provide this motivation by providing awards after the student has met specific,
measurable goals designed in partnership with the teacher, student, and parent." -- Phyllis Sorenson
President, Utah Education Association |
"Our teachers felt
that the ability to present awards to students who demonstrated extra effort within their
classrooms was a very positive way to encourage their classes. NHS parents were also
informed about the program and encouraged their children to participate." -- K. Copley, Assistant Principal,
Nogales High School, Arizona |
"Since I worked for Granite High School many projects have
crossed my desk and many have done just that, passed my desk... this project is a
wonderful program and of great value to teachers and staff... and to our wonderful
students."--
B. Veenendahl, Teacher, Cottonwood High School, Salt Lake City, Utah |
| "I like the way
your program encourages students to try for good grades and for those who have good grades
to keep up the good work. I know that it did help me." -- A. Cooper, Student, Tucson, Arizona |
"Thank you for the
cool coupons... they make me want to keep trying my hardest in school." -- D. Moffitt, Elementary Student, Las Vegas,
Nevada |
"We are very proud of our daughter Natisha to (have) received
this award. She's always had a good attitude for her goals for the future... Natisha
is also proud of her native American culture... as her family, we are so gratified and
honored by this award. Thank you for your support and your involvement, for all our
future students everywhere in Utah."-- P. and J. Stevens and Family, Utah (Natisha won a $1,000 savings
bond) |
| "Since two of our
students won in the drawing, kids have been pressuring their teachers in other classes to
participate in GoalGetters®...By the way, the students who won the Savings Bonds
are so thrilled -- we pointed out that the bonds would mature about the time they were
needed for college and both of them have been studying even harder and making serious
college plans. Thank you so much for making this possible." -- K. Smith, Salt Lake City, Utah |
