My students seldom feel they are able to find anything that is meaningful to them. I have found that snacks and treats can be highly incentivizing to these kids.

Incentives are part of what keeps our program running the way it needs to. We need to be able to offer these kids incentives that are desired. The extra treats are definitely the way to do that.
